Michelin Road Tyre Range - DisPlaCeD - 28-04-2007

I currently run a Michelin "Pilot Road" on the rear and feel confident with each outing...

I have the Pilot Power 2 CT thats the 2 compound, and feel very secure with them, even better then the prvious standard PP, the 2ct have softer sides and harder down the middle.

Im also on 2CT's, best tyre I ever had. Got 4000k out of first set, thats alright for me, got 5000 from Pilot Powers, but I put less mileage down to more confidence of grip.

last time I tried Michelin I couldn't wait to change off the things!! the ones just under their pilot powers.. were icky!

RE: Michelin Road Tyre Range - chunkylover - 08-07-2007

Just wanna know what people think of the pilot sport HPX compared to pilot power. As i will be doing a tyre change soon.

cheers.

Hmmm not bad, but they loose a bit of grip half way through there life. All depends on what type of milage and grip u want .

RE: Michelin Road Tyre Range - Macbusa - 08-07-2007

HPX on the rear was stickeyer than the power on the rear . Fattbussa had a power on rear and didnt really get stickey a power up front feels better than a HPX turns in quicker better feel .

RE: Michelin Road Tyre Range - chunkylover - 16-07-2007

I currently have a pilot power on the rear. Iam looking into either the HPX (200) or the 2 compond pilot power?? I like the pilot power. But i need somthing that will last abit longer in the middle. But yet sticky enough on the edges.

RE: Michelin Road Tyre Range - Kompressor - 23-07-2007

Hi guys

I just got my bike and it has the pilot powers on it. I've had them on other bikes and they've been good so far.

However, I looked at mine and they're made in spain. WTF?!! Are they the new Taiwan/Mexico?

Hi All

I changed from Bridgestone to HPX on the front and at 60kph felt a pogo effect which smoothed out as speed increased. But as 60 is the in town speed limit, this pogo-ing didn't feel right. I got it swapped for another HPX and no problems. In short, I enjoyed the HPX on the front. A new problem has arisen. Just put 2 new HPX's on (front and rear) and what do I find? Bloody pogo-ing at 60k again. I wonder if it was an out of balance batch and has anyone else had a similar experience.
