Thumbs up Michelin Pilot Power 2CT review

I had a new pair put on last week which replaced the original tyres that had come with the bike (only covered 6.4k miles so still had tread left on them).

Well. i've only covered 130 dry miles on these new tyres and I have been breaking them in but the bike feels completely different. The bike feels far more compliant on the road and it falls into corners much more smoothly. Appears to be more feedback through the front of the bike.

Also, under breaking, the grip feels 100% better than the old tyres - actually feels like i've got new pads in there it's that noticible.

Obviously very early days but very pleased so far.

The newer 2CT batches have a different compound mix so this may explain the improved feel.
