Michelin 2CT
- Thread starter FloydV
- Start date
I was running them exclusively and will again as soon as I need the factory set on my '08 replaced. I'm fairly harsh on the tire ( no burnouts, but aggressive through the gears ) and was getting close to or just over 5K. When the tire gets worn it can become a little slick on hard stops. Great tire.
WHOA... Tuf:
Did you say Michelin makes a Decent street tire?
or are my eyes deceiving me?
Just kidding.
Hell yeah! I give credit where credit is due!
They are a pretty good street tire and decent track day tires if you are an exceptional rider. But for the occasional trackday rider, I wouldn't recommend them as they are very unforgiving. A little mistake will get you into big trouble. I find most guys have to crash twice on michelins before they will give them up for a better tire. Strange human nature I think? ???
Depends on what you are looking for in performance. Storms are a great tire with a relatively long life and a good choice for the guy who does tons of miles with the occasionaly twisty day tossed in.
The BT016 is a really good twisty tire, very forgiving and has decent life for a genuine performance oriented tire. Dual compound front and tripple compound rear. I have a new set of 16's awaiting spring weather.
I still have a soft spot in my heart for Dunlop's Qualifier as maybe the best of all the street tires. Hard tire to beat.

What makes them so unforgiving? I mean crash twice?
