Buffalo, NY: The Summer X Games at the Circuit of the Americas in Austin, TX, saw Dunlop-sponsored riders take every available Gold and Silver medal, and sweep all three medals in five of the seven motorcycle events to take 19 of a possible 21 podiums.
This year also included two new events; Moto X Quarter Pipe, which replaced the Best Trick event in previous X Games, and Harley-Davidson Flat-Track Racing, which featured Harley XR750 riders competing on a slippery 3/8 mile oval on Dunlop’s Sportmax® DT3 flat track tire. Dunlop’s Geomax® MX32 and MX52 tires were the choice of all motocross and freestyle Dunlop riders competing at this year’s X Games.
Our congratulations go out to all the X Games Dunlop-sponsored riders.
