Default Re: Dunlops vs Michelins?

I use the Mich 2ct and get exelent mileage from them and no problems.I will be doing my second Scotland trip with them after one last year and the riding inbetween.

As a point of interest the 2ct compound has been changed and it is not the same as the original 2ct-----I have the later one

Brilliant tourer and can handle bad weather whilst being a tyre that will outperform any riding i can give it-----------down side being it is not the cheapest.

im running the pilot road 3. good grip even in the wet. they are not cheap tho. I got them from tony salt in warrington on a ride in/out basis. excellent service and only waited around 40 minutes.

I've used both PR2s and PR3s on my gixer thou. Both are excellent but the 3 has the edge in the wet. If it can cope with a litrebike being ridden by a hamfisted idiot on Alpine roads in torrential rain, it can cope with an SV.

Pricey though.
