The Dunlop D 404F 80/90R21 48H is a front motorcycle tyre engineered for mixed road use, aimed at riders who prioritise precise steering and predictable handling. It is intended for bikes frequently ridden on both urban streets and open roads, where nimble steering response is important. The tyre profile promotes a confident contact patch for directional stability and predictable turn-in. Tread compound tuned for grip provides reliable wet grip without excessive rolling resistance. Optimised block geometry supports consistent wear and improved mileage over touring distances.

A longitudinal groove pattern helps with water evacuation, reducing the risk of aquaplaning and improving braking distance in adverse conditions. The carcass construction balances flexibility and stiffness to deliver both driving comfort and sharp steering feel. The tyre’s design enhances cornering stability while maintaining a comfortable ride on uneven surfaces. Durable construction also supports sustained load capacity for typical touring luggage configurations. Even wear behaviour ensures predictable performance throughout the tread life.

For the rider this results in stable front-end feedback and confidence when braking into bends. The tyre is particularly suited to commuters and long-distance tourers seeking a blend of safety, mileage and consistent handling in variable British weather.
