shadyone Posted February 24, 2012 Report Share Posted February 24, 2012 Are the PR3's that much better. Ive decided I want a Road tire as I dont have the cash to do a trackday anytime soon and ride a lot of highway. I was Eyeballing the Conti Motions because Ive heard great reviews on them and they are way cheap. $180 a set compared to $290 for the PR3s.

Hoblick Posted February 24, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 24, 2012 (edited) The big advantage of the PR3 over some other tires, even its predecessor the pilot road 2, is its wet traction. The New 3D siping on the tire, Sipes increase the tread's drainage capacity they also generate pressures at the edge of the sipe blade, which help break through water film.I personally loved the Pilot Road 2, had them on my VFR and i will be replacing the Tires on the Multistrada when it needs it with a set of PR3s. They are a very long lasting tire, but still have the grip of a performance tire. I do alot of touring, and need the best of both worlds, the Pilot Road series of tires from Michelin just works for me. I wouldnt be afraid to do a track day on them!

Hoblick Posted February 25, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 25, 2012 Cool! Thanks for your review. 2CTs are great tires!like mentioned already , you can do a track day on them no problem and cut some good times.If you want to bump up a notch you can go to a Pilot Pure which is also an incredible tire. The difference is, the pure is lighter, and also the softer compound comes up farther on the side of the tire.Power 2CThttp://www.michelinmotorcycle.com/index.cfm?event=pilotpower2ctPurehttp://www.michelinmotorcycle.com/index.cfm?event=powerpure Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
