This from Dave at Motorace (Michelin distributor):

They are not in Michelin US 2007 catalog. We do know about them as they were discussed at the Competition Meeting in Orlando in February.
We MAY see them late this season. But for 2008 I think we can count on it.


Also from Dave:
The design looks like a 2CT Pilot Power, and is based upon similar technology. It will be a quiet tire - the Powers are for sure.

I hope they make 18" tires for the ST's front. They aren't listed in that size for the PR2's. :cool:

Dave the Michelin distributor says he wants to know if they have sizes for his VStrom...he doesn't have that info yet. Hard to imagine they wouldn't do an 18-incher for the front.

Hey I could always use another set to test. :) I'm pretty sure I can put a set away in August. I wonder if they will have some available by then. If they last longer than the Pilot Road 1 then I should be able to do the whole rally on that set.... maybe.

Sweet Love of Peanut Butter Pie!!! Do I have to tell you EVERYTHING?!?!?!:p:
Yes. Yes you do.

I've seen that product before but had forgotten the name. If you've ever had to change a tire that's had that stuff put in it you may have a different opinion of it. However the product doesn't add tread to your tire. I'm not worried about a flat as much as I'm worried about running out of tread.

Might not add thread,,, but makes tires run cooler,,, wear slower some say...

I USE to use it but had a funky shimmy a few years ago... I blamed it might have been from the Ride on but,,, talking to 50 people who used it,,, all told me I was crazy... Which,,, as you know,,, I am... :rolleyes:
