You should try to change tires manually.....I do it and it's a real pain in the butt. After buying rim protectors, tire wrenches and a bead breaker, it costs nothing to do. I made the tire balancer for 1 dollar.Paid 110 to have them installed. That's the crazy part.
Awesome! I know which tires I'm getting for the R6 next! :thumbup:Well I have ridden in the rain 3 days now, one of them which was a down pour. Let me tell you what, have you ever had a sports car/Beamer etc; and put blizzak tires on for the winter to drive it? This was just the same. The stock tires didn't seem to perform nearly to the magnitude these tires do. I didn't once feel my tires slip in the rain, even in some light puddling it cut right through.
Dry...Lets put it this way, I can rip through redline 1st, 2nd, and 3rd without a single feeling of slip. Even Hammering first without warming the tires up they dont slip. I usually warm them up but I did ride hard on them cold to test it. Im a baby in the corners, hence my name, BUT I am getting much better and doing about 10 over in the corners and havent had much of an issue other than me being a nervous nelly thinking I feel slip when I truly dont(its in my head, I saw a guy go down HARD into the ditch in a corner lowsiding because of sand and no ATGATT)
The tires look SECKS on the bike, I mean these are an aggressive hot looking tire, and I get compliments from everyone on how unique they are and how aggressive they look! I have 1,000 miles on them already, and they dont even look like they have been ridden on, Ill post pictures tonight!~
Michelin Pilot Road 3 are here!!!!!! - Page 8 - Yamaha FZ6 Forums - International FZ6 Motorcycle Community ForumFor the ones of you who are using P3... look out this thread on the FZ6 forum... Scary $hit! He crash because his tires blew up... Read this thread... be careful!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Scary isn't it? If I had a set I will honestly pull them off! Michelin made good tires, maybe is something to do with this first batch? Either way...
The worst part is it doesn't look like Michelin is standing behind there products on this case...WTF?!?! Maybe I will NOT be getting these! Rear shred apart and now his front went out causing him to rear end his chick SUV.... Thats messed up.
