Tyre recall in Europe!

I seem to remember about eleven or twelve years ago there was a similar issue in the USA with Dunlop M/C tyres.....

Looks like it’s only the 120/70 zr18. Got a good scare out of me though! I just ordered a new set (Includes 120/70 zr17).

This is deja vu all over again...... yes there was a problem with the original Roadsmarts with tread separation and one happened to a friend while we were on a trip in the US. There was a recall back then and the Roadsmart2 was to solve the problem. Even then there were a couple. I swore then I'd never put a Dunlop on after that, but I have used Roadsmart3's. If my info is correct, it was the tires made in France. The recall notice indicates that. I personally wouldn't use a Dunlop made in that plant. All the Roadsmart 3's I have seen here are made in Japan, no issues that I'm aware of. I am on several motorcycle forums and haven't seen mention of it in recent years, until now.
