Which do you think are the best for riding all year round( I don't do track days), but do knee down? Metzeler M7RR or Pirelli Gran Turismo. I quite fancy the Pirelli.
My Pilot Power 2CT's are just about done and I'm looking at PR4's next. All reviews seem good. Can anybody shed any light on what sort of miles to expect out of a rear. I get between 3000 & 3.500 miles out of a rear on 2CT's.
I had 6k out of the rear of a PR3 on my R6 and it was barely half worn. A friend has 4k on a PR4 on a Z1000SX, and again it looks barely half worn. They are superb tyres, and far sticky enough for any road riding.
Morning All Thinking of changing to Michelin pilot power 3s anyone had any experience of these. Cheers Stu
currently running M7RR and they are bloody good. as Good as my Dunlop Sportsmarts I have raved about in the past. cracking all round tyre and grip and been used on Trackways last year at Brands and cadwell weekend
I was thinking seriously about these, but went for the T30 Evos instead - only because of two trips to the continent planned for this year, so was looking at mileage. Otherwise I would have gone for the S21.
Hi Guys No opinions on the pilot power 3s then,have ran the pr4s but thought I would try something more suited to the bike ie a sports tyre not a sports touring one. Cheers Stu
Pilot Power 3s are great - I've had several sets of them. Cheap as well from Tyreleader etc. https://www.tyreleader.co.uk/motorbike-tyres/michelin/pilot-power-3/190-50-zr17-73w-185923
I have used M7RR's on my S1000RR and think they are a bloody good all-round tyre. I am aiming to get a set fitted as spares to my Pirelli SP Corsas for when the weather is more inclement.
Got a pair of M7RRs from wheelhouse tyres at birmingham. paid 205 for the pair. Not used them yet, but they were a very recent date stamp and all the write ups have been good..
Hi Ian How did you find the wear rate on them and where they ok if you got caught out in the rain. Cheers Stu
I used to use the older Michelin 2CT on the Blade - and got approx. 2000 miles out of a rear and 4000 out of a front. I am getting slightly more mileage out of the Pilot Power 3s. They are fine in the rain. I've tried Pirelli, Bridgestone and Dunlop on the Blades but don't get anything like the mileage that I get with Michelins. Cheers, Ian.
The wear rate was much better than either the SP Corsas or the Continental Sport Attacks I had been using previously; in the wet they were confidence inspiring. Well recommended.
