Michelin Power 6 | The Best Road Based Motorcycle Tyre??

I was invited by Michelin to Spain to put their latest generation of road tyres through their paces on road and track. Tyre testing is subjective especially when you are testing the same brand of tyre but here's my findings from the Michelin Power 6 and Power GP 2 on the road.

@@juicy9592 compared to the S22's I originally had: The grip is far more predictable and they warm up a lot quicker. Not as "pointy" at the front but feel more confident as they have a very linear feeling, no sudden dip or flighty feeling. Just smooth, consistent feeling throughout the corner.

@marcusgeorge1825 Ай бұрын

It’s interesting when it comes to the choice of tyres. One example (keeping in mind that I once for several years was testing each at Phillip Island during racing seasons), is an ex teammate, racing the exact same bikes. With lap times separating us by tenths of a second, ran different brands and were slower if we swapped tyres. It’s something you can only grasp when testing back to back, on the same bike and track to really determine what suits you best. This being said, for 99% of all riders, just go with what is recommended from your trusted service centre as these days, apart from the OEM rubber, are better than the rider on them.

@TheAdventuresofPhilJones Ай бұрын

Great idea about comparing the competition at a tyre launch! I have Road 5’s on my Speed Triple and I absolutely love them in all conditions. My bestie now has Road 6’s on her 2011 Street Triple and I’ve no problems with them in the wet and remember the bike doesn’t have any rider modes to reign in the power. I’d be very interested to try the Power 6’s in the UK wet weather, I have no doubt they are brilliant when riding in the heat in Spain! 😁👍

We regard to your comment @17:13 about the new asymmetrical tread patterns Chopsie..... I prefer the old pattern of the outgoing Power GP. It was very distinctive, whereas the new PowerGP2 pattern is nigh-on identical to the sports tyres offered by many of the other brands. Nearly all (same genre) tyres are beginning to look the same these days, with only very minor differences between the tread patterns of the various brands. In short, tyre brands are losing their individual identity.

I've got power 5 on one bike and s22s on the other. Both are great. Different bikes but fwiw the main difference I notice is the power 5 are good to go straight away, better in cold or wet weather, very versatile for street riding in all conditions never feel like they don't have enough grip on the street great all rounder. The bridgestone do take a little while to heat up, but after they're fully up to temp I actually prefer the feel of them, they have this nice soft way to them, they're not sketchy in the cold/wet but they do need some heat to really get in their happy place, so IMO the better choice for summer fun in nice weather where you can get some heat in them.

Surely a Pro tester like yourself uses a visor with tear-offs??? Damp microfiber cloth or piece of damp sponge stuffed in a suitable crevice (insert own joke here) if you're a cheapskate works equally well for cleanage on the move.

No don't use tear offs on the street, get done for littering! Normally of course you would stop but in this type of fast group ride environment its not easy.. should probably have stopped as it was pretty bad
