Hi guys,

Anyone have any experience with the Michelin pilot power 3?
Looking for new tyres. I'm riding a standard 990, no track just street.

Thx Guys

Hey,

I just had a set installed and broke them in yesterday, 10 miles, figure 8's and hard launches while leaned over to remove the wax, lubricant from the tyre mold.

I had 2000 miles on my last set on my SV650. That's the reason I purchased them for my SDuke. If I lived closer to twisty roads, I would have probably gotten the Pilot Power. But in FL, I am 83 miles via Interstate from fun roads, so I have to get something that has longer wear in the center.

I am on my way to the North Georgia mountains next thursday for some fun riding. I'll be riding with another SDuke, Concours 14 (You've got to see this guy dragging the saddlebags), Aprilia Tuono and GSXR 750.

Should be fun, I'll post a full review after approximately 1000 miles of mountain roads.
