Pedro Posted June 21, 2007 Report Share Posted June 21, 2007 What do you mean they got recalled?.... I love mineMichelin has launched a campaign to recall its Pilot Power 2CT and Pilot Power 120/70 ZR 17 front motorcycle tyres with “Made in France†markings. An examination of these tyres showed a possible defect in the tread due to a manufacturing irregularity. No cases of pressure loss have been reported and no accidents have occurred. Because customer safety is its primary concern, Michelin has decided as a precaution to replace certain 120/70 ZR 17 Michelin Pilot Power 2CT and Michelin Pilot Power front tyres, which can be identified by the following markings on the sidewall:a “Made in France†label DOT 6UCW 980T or DOT 6UCW 979T Pilot Power: week numbers 2704 to 0406 inclusive Pilot Power 2CT: week numbers 4505 to 1807 inclusiveThese tyres will no longer be sold by dealers.A special telephone number for consumers has been set up to provide customers with information about the campaign and will be operational on Monday 18 June from 8.30 a.m.The telephone numbers are:UK : 0800 454774Republic of Ireland: 0044 (0)1782 401535 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

samhain138 Posted June 22, 2007 Author Report Share Posted June 22, 2007 When are they replacing the tire is another issue....The recall also applies for regular pilot powers as well, as Pedro mentioned. Heres a pic of delamination, the reason for the recall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone have experience w/ the qualifiers?I think Tara (r6chic) has a set of these on her bike. Not 100% sure though, try sending her a PM, I don't think she gets on the board much.

bowhunt Posted June 25, 2007 Report Share Posted June 25, 2007 I ahve had the Corsa III's on my bike since last summer and love them. I have not tracked them yet but that is coming soon. They will give you a whole new level of confidence on your bike especially when at more than cruising lean angles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
