Default Re: Pilot Road 4

I hope these will be a good choice, I too wondered about the Pilot Powers - to help with my inability to lean as far as I'd like, but as I ride every day rain shine or snow I hope these will be better suited.


When I say they look nice, on reflection the tread pattern is, well not as appealing as the ones on the Road Smarts 2's I just had. Looks like someone went mad with a scalpel. Still I can't see them when fitted.


I am relatively new to bikes, this is my 1st big bike and only my second tyre swap. The Road Smarts were great, way better than the worn out stock thing that came on my bike (RS did 8000 odd miles forgot to make a note when fitted - 14 months).
The guy who did my last MOT recommended Michelin as my tyres were getting a bit low. As I have no idea which brands I like I gave it a go.


Fingers crossed I like them.


I'll whip them off tonight and run them down the road tomorrow.
I did think about having a go myself, as I have a vice and big tyre levers. But no way to balance the things, I did find out how via google.
Might invest and try next time round.
