Product Information

Full details

The Dunlop Arrowmax GT601 is designed for daily commuters and sport-touring riders who prioritize a balance of longevity and consistent grip in varying weather conditions. Featuring an advanced silica-infused compound and high-rigidity grooves, this tyre provides reliable handling on both wet and dry surfaces; however, riders seeking pure track-day performance may find its compound focused more on durability than extreme racing-level friction.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Is this a front or rear tyre?

This specific Dunlop Arrowmax GT601 is designed for front-wheel fitment.

Does this tyre require an inner tube?

No, this is a tubeless (TL) construction tyre.

Is the GT601 suitable for track days?

While it offers great grip, it is categorized as a sport-touring tyre and is not designed for the extreme demands of track racing.

How long will this tyre last?

Durability depends on riding style, road surface, and maintenance, but the high-abrasion compound is specifically engineered for long-distance longevity.

Why is there silica in the compound?

Silica is used to improve the tyre's ability to grip in wet conditions and cooler temperatures without compromising tread wear.

Troubleshooting

Tyre feels sluggish or heavy during cornering

Check your tyre pressure; under-inflated tyres significantly degrade handling performance.

Excessive vibration at highway speeds

Ensure the wheel assembly is correctly balanced; check for any missing wheel weights or debris inside the tread.

Uneven tread wear

Verify wheel alignment and check suspension settings; uneven wear is often a sign of mechanical imbalance rather than tyre defect.

Pros and Cons

Pros

Excellent longevity for daily road use
Superior wet-weather traction via silica compound
Predictable and stable handling characteristics
High pattern rigidity reduces unwanted tread flex

Cons

Not intended for dedicated circuit racing
Specific front-wheel fitment limits rotation options
May feel less 'sticky' than hypersport-focused compounds

Setup, Compatibility & Care

This specific variant is engineered for front-wheel fitment and requires a tubeless-compatible rim. Ensure your motorcycle's wheel size matches the 17-inch diameter specified for this 70/90 profile.

Installation: Always have the tyre mounted by a professional using proper bead-lubrication to avoid damaging the tyre walls.
Pressure: Check your motorcycle owner's manual for recommended cold inflation pressures, as these vary by bike weight and cargo.
Break-in: Like all new tyres, ride cautiously for the first 100 kilometers to allow the release agents from the manufacturing process to wear off the tread surface.
Storage: Keep the bike in a cool, dry area away from direct sunlight and ozone sources to prevent compound degradation.
