The stock tyre that I got with the bike was Dunlop Arrowmax GT501 It was good for road use and had a good gripping feel on the track When the time came for a change of tyres (18,000km) I tried MICHELIN PILOT ACTIV The only bad thing about it is on a cold wet day when entering a corner But besides that I think it has more grip then the Dunlop Might try Pirelli next
Hey Revit Had Michelin Pilot 2 on a Suzuki and simply could not wear them out, great mileage. Had Pirelli diablo on a Honda CBR and got very poor mileage but decent grip. Am currently running Bridgestones on my CBR and couldn't be happier. My take is this, they are all good tyres, comes down to personal choice and price, shop around. Phil
I agree with you My Michelin has already run 9000km and there is no sign of wear. The logo is still there. But I still want to try out the Pirelli next due to the fact that they have the best wet weather grip. Which would be essential during these wet rainy days However with the extra great mileage of the Michelin, it might be another 2 years before I need to change my tyres
