The Dunlop D 407 H/D 200/55R17 78V is a rear motorcycle sport‑touring tyre designed for mid to high power machines, suitable for spirited road riding and long distance touring. It targets riders who expect grip with comfort and steady mileage. The tread profile expands the contact patch under lean and load to improve traction in corners while promoting even wear across the usable surface. The compound ensures stable wet grip and consistent braking distance performance in variable conditions. Steering response is refined to offer predictable inputs when transitioning from upright cruising to dynamic cornering.

The carcass design balances lateral stiffness for cornering stability with vertical compliance for riding comfort on uneven surfaces. Reinforced bead and sidewall elements enhance load capacity and support prolonged highway use. Drainage grooves work to maintain water evacuation and reduce aquaplaning tendency in heavy rain.

Overall this tyre gives touring riders a reliable platform for long days in the saddle, combining controllable handling, confident wet behaviour and durable mileage that keeps maintenance intervals predictable.
