I have a Pirelli Dragon MTR02 size 160/60/R17 on the back of my Duke II that is in need of replacement. After searching the web for a bit, I am having a real hard time finding this exact tire. Did Pirelli rename their tire series recently or did they discontinue this series? If so, does anyone know what series would be very close to this one. Ideally I'd like to put the exact same tire back on as I'd hate to mess with such a "perfect handling package" the way it currently sits.

Thanks.

This might be a case of "lets put this tire on the bike when we sell it but never offer it to the consumer for sale". When I bought my '00 ZX6R I had a 120/65 D207 front tire on it, but I couldn't buy a replacement 120/65 tire, I had to go for either a 60 or 70.
