Michelin Pilot Powers on the Daytona

[rickster]

The new Michelins are awesome! I put a Pilot Power on the front and Pilot Power 2CT on the rear. If you'll pardon the metaphors, the front end feels like I have both hands wrapped around the axle, and the rear feels so planted it might as well be bolted to the pavement. Special thanks to Rod, the owner of Cycle Parts, for the great price,:thumbup: and to racer Clint, who had them mounted and balanced before I could say "What pressure are these run at?".:thumbup: You guys Rock!!!!:bow:

"I've never met a Michelin I didn't like!" :yes:

Hey Rick. Im curious as to why you didnt have the 2ct put on the front. I have been considering putting these on my bike. I also sent a PM your way

Hey Rick. Im curious as to why you didnt have the 2ct put on the front. I have been considering putting these on my bike. I also sent a PM your wayReason #1, Rod didn't have a 2CT front in stock.
Reason #2, and this made sense to me, was Rod's comment; "When's the last time you saw a front worn out in the center?"

Had a pair of the 2ct put in yesterday. Love em. What a HUGE difference

Tires do indeed make ALL the difference!

Im in the tire market as we speak and have been considering the Pilots....I hate this dilema. How do they stack up against, say, Pirellis?

I've run just about everything EXCEPT the Pilots, so excluding them, I have found Diablos to be my favorite.

Honestly I didn’t have any complaints from the OEM Bridgestone. I didn’t start riding until last year so I haven’t had anything for comparison. >>> Insert comments here <<<<< The pilots feel so different. Almost like being glued to the road. Maybe work them over this Saturday if anyone is going on a ride?
