KTM, GasGas & Husqvarna select Dunlop Geomax MX34

Three prominent motocross manufacturers have selected the Dunlop Geomax MX34 to be the standard original equipment tyre on their factory edition bikes. KTM, GasGas and Husqvarna, which began supplying the Geomax MX33 last year, are now fitting Dunlop’s latest generation soft-mid tyre.

Dunlop Geomax MX34 tyres are thus original equipment on the KTM 450 SX-F Factory Edition, the GasGas MC 450F Factory Edition, and Husqvarna FC 450 Rockstar Edition. These three bikes share the same chassis design and unmissable team graphics as the machines that their respective factory race teams use in the fiercely competitive AMA Supercross Championship, which got underway earlier this month.

“We are thrilled that the Geomax MX34 tyre has been chosen as the original fitment for factory edition bikes from three top manufacturers: KTM, Husqvarna and GasGas,” says Miguel Morais, original equipment manager, Dunlop Motorcycle EMEA. “We are delighted to offer riders and teams a tyre that provides stability and confidence across a range of conditions, empowering them to give their all on the track throughout 2024.”

Advantages of Geomax MX34

Dunlop says its Geomax MX34 ensures improved cornering performance and front and rear slide control versus Geomax MX33, providing the straight-line stability and corner control that is crucial for riders to perform at their best in the Supercross competition. The new rear pattern allows riders to accelerate confidently on soft, mud and intermediate tracks, contributing to race-winning lap times. Adding to that is the next-generation Progressive Cornering Block Technology (PCBT), which facilitates superior absorption and improved ground contact for optimal traction and performance.

The majority of the riders competing in the 2024 AMA Supercross Championship have chosen the Dunlop Geomax range, continuing Dunlop’s status as the “preferred tyre option among the best riders.” Meanwhile, Dunlop is looking to continue the streak of winning every AMA Supercross and Pro Motocross title since 2010 in the new season.

“As the FIM Motocross World Championship, starting in Argentina on 10 March, approaches, anticipation builds for the Geomax MX34 to continue its strong performance on the global motocross stage,” comments Dunlop.
