"After four years as the official race tire of Chad Reed and TwoTwo Motorsports, the team and Dunlop have agreed to mutually end their partnership to allow TwoTwo to expand their relationship with their title sponsor.
“I am very thankful for the support Dunlop has shown TwoTwo Motorsports and myself since 2010,” said Reed. “Over the past four years, I have had the privilege to watch Dunlop develop cutting-edge products for my team and the industry. As an independent team owner I am forced to make hard decisions. I would sincerely like to extend my gratitude to the entire Dunlop team and wish them nothing but success moving forward. We are excited for the future of TwoTwo Motorsports and the impact we continue to make on the industry.”

The Shop
It was a bitch to mount
The other thing is I wondered is if Discount Tire wants to start carrying motorcycle tires and has negotiated with someone like Maxxis or Pirelli.
Pirelli was already making motocross tires for a very long time, and even still they have to devote a ton of resources to making tires to suitable to each venue and to the riders liking. When Stewart was at JGR pirelli was making new batches of tires every week, sometimes twice a week to try and match Dunlop and get the performance right. That's not something some automobile tire company could step into and start doing at the drop of a hat.
and put a new kid on Reedy's bike, like Dean-O.
Pit Row
Question is, is Reedy still getting worx tires? Me thinks Dunlop wasn't giving him first dibs at the races anymore.
