Best tyres? Avon v Bridgestone v ?? - Page 5 - SV650.org

I have Michelin pilots on my bike and have been using them on my last couple of cars.

I have found them to offer as good or better grip in wet and dry conditions compared with other brands of tyre but they just seem to last a hell of a lot longer.

After 2k miles the Michelins on my 636 don't look like they have worn at all. The stock tyres on my SV were still barely worn at the same mileage but noticeably more worn than these Michelins and the latter have had a harder life.

It has been the same with my cars, they take a lot of punishment, grip like hell and don't seem to wear out.
