Hey Everyone,
I was invited by Michelin to head to Portugal to test out 3 tyres:
MICHELIN POWER 6s
MICHELIN POWER GP2s
MICHELIN ANAKEE ROADS
On Day 2, we tested Michelin ANAKEE ROADS on the road and the POWER 6s and POWER GP2s on Track.
I hope you enjoy it :)

Oh Kate i just love your confidence, i have only been riding 12 months having got my A license in 2023 at the ripe old age of 67, i wish i had the same level when cornering especially in the wet, thanks for some great videos.

Indeed Kate you are right about brand loyalty, I experimented with lots of tyres 20+ years ago when commuting my 1000cc Thunderace into London, I soon realized the standard tyres for that bike were the best easily, hit the power a bit too hard out of a corner and the front wheel would lift with the rear firmly planted while leant over, never looked back. We are all such lucky bunnies to have such great tyres to choose these days, thank you moto gp and world superbikes

Great review thanks Kate. I believe Reg Local has just fitted some Anakee Roads so interested to see how he gets on long term. It sound like they are similar to Dunlop Mutant maybe? That would be an interesting comparison too. Great track work as always 👌

The sun's making an appearance but the temperature isn't playing ball just yet to declare the season open up here in deepest Scotland. Not that many people ride so it's refreshing watching your entheusiasm and knowledgebase to be frank so a big thank you for your work and efforts keeping us in Timbuktu in touch and entertained!

I've had Michelin Pilot Road 4, Road 5 and Road 6 tires on 3 different bikes. I've loved them all! I wasn't able to find the limit of the Road 6 on a KTM 1290 SAS on the road, so I think something spicy like the Power 6 would be wasted on me.

@blade1535 Ай бұрын

Just got a SAS and want to get off the Mita’s tyres asap. The front doesn’t give me confidence at all. Contemplating Anakee Roads or maybe R6 GT?? Decisions.

@SoDakTwisties Ай бұрын

@@blade1535 I don't have any experience with Anakee tires. Apart from gravel roads here and there out of necessity, I got the SAS to be used on paved roads. The Road 6 (not even the GT) performed perfectly and I didn't find the limit on the street. I pushed it hard, too. They did very well in the rain, as intended. I've just traded the SAS in for a BMW R1250RT and bought the Road 6 GT's for that because it's about 100 pounds heavier. I haven't tried the GTs yet...just keeping them on-hand in case I catch a flat. In that case, I'll mount the R6GTs right away.

No, its not that deep. Michelin literally just borrowed what they could get from a lot of willing dealerships. It's not that calculated.
