Michelin PP2CT

[surfabusa]

went for the 55 profile, turns in beautifully

Hey Busakid,

I spoke to a stealership about wanting to try the 55 profile and they said that they would require me to bring a wheel in as the 55 profile could attract a duty-of-care issue for them if they were to fit it directly to a Hayabusa.

Suits me fine, but just wondered if you'd heard the same thing?

I am about to purchase new tread

i am guessing the pp2ct's are a softer/stickier compound...then the hpx

i have piolt roads 50's and find them great in the dry but a little( no sorry, a lot) slippery in the wet.(granted they are at 20% life left)

I am guessing the 55 is a higher profile which helps the bike drop in more.. is it a noticable different and why the duty of care.. how does this effect the bike at hwy and upwards speeds

to all the pp2ct users do you find them better in the wet then the hpx

also correct me if i am wrong pp2ct's are pilot roads

the mich website states that the hpx is the choice for wet weather conditions

i also read on this forum that many users are happy the ppcts in the wet,
perhaps it is my suspension set up thatmakes me the odd one out as far as wet road satisfaction

(only had the bike a month and the rear suspension was wound completly down, sat almost 2 inches lower then standard. have started to wind it back, i guess its trial and error)



thanks in advance to all who reply
