In the bmw K1200S Pilot Power were great, and never let me down.
Now with the RSV I'm trying PP2ct and even being a different bike with different weight, i find the 2CT extremely hard to keep @ good temperature and only when ride very hard they really work fine.
Next set will be Pirelli SCIII.
By the way, how many miles you get from a new set of tires....(knowing that depends on driving style :angry

Thats why Michelin put a recall on them, all affected batches were made in France apparently and were being replaced at no cost to buyers. Wouldn't like to have had that happen while riding

The tyres in the picture are the Pilot Road tyres which as sprocker said had a recall on them and not 2CT's which are from the Pilot Power range

Looks like a 2ct to me bro but I dont know much about Michelins. I have one hung up in the garage but its only there cos it was a freebee and I probs wont use it cos I am very happy with my Supercorsas. Either way lets hope none of us get that happen mid corner!

:rantWhy is it that the rich blokes like Badger get that kind of luck?:confused I am never joining the fire brigade again. I am going up to Scotland to work for Badger so I can have lots of Aprilias and horses etc. :horse
Also, is it just me or has the female skeleton in Sharky's avatar got a cordless drill for a foot? At least I hope it's a female :eek2
Just playin with you Sharks:thumbup
have pilot powers on my gsxr 1000 k5 and they are incredible. Have laid darkies without realising they are slipping, lost the front pushing very hard and stayed on and got round the corner and in the wet, it gives as much confidence as in the dry. Dont pick mille up until the first and will replace the rennsport on the way home. A few quid for a bike that you can play with is a few quid well spent, tyres that are good in the dry are great only where it stays dry..........

Although I hear that the Rennsports aren't supposed to be good in the wet they never gave me any scares and that's all I ask of a tyre. However, that knowledge was always in the back of my mind.
Had some 2CT's fitted today, what an awesome tyre! Rolls into the corners better which I put down to a different profile, although my old rear was well squared off. The wonderful feel was that although the bike wanted to go into the lean it was like rolling onto fly paper, that's how good they feel.
Had an absolutely fantastic ride on them today and combined with the recent suspension mods I'm NOW really starting to fall for this bike like I did with the Ducati. AWESOME :inlove
