Michelin Pilot Road 3 Radial Rear Tire

Had Road Pilot 2's and loved em. Predictable grip, great mileage. I commute 40 miles everyday. Haven't had the Pilot 3's long but they are looking to be every bit as good. Excellent wet weather traction, great fun in the dry, wearing well. So far so good. I'd definitely recommend to any user. Ride a hooligan FZ-6 and love to ride it on ramps.

Big difference in grip in the corners, much better than the Pirelli I had previously.

Handles very well-great traction-wears a little faster than I expected, but for the way I ride probably is to be expected.

I just put these tires on my Ducati Monster. Love them so far. It changes the who dynamic of the bike. The bike feels a lot more stable, and improvement in the handling is very noticeable. They inspire a lot more confidence in the corners and make the bike seem a lot easier to control. I'm sold :)

Great tire. Way better than my old Q2's. Commute 75 miles rt. X5. Have 15,000 on them and the tires are finally cupping. Great mileage tire.

great

I just had this tire installed and I've been happy with the ride and performance to date. I have not had it on wet roads yet so I can't really comment on wet weather traction. Best endorsement I can give is that the tire rides and handles just as well as the Bridgestone I just wore out.

Best tire I have ever used!

Grips really well on dirty bumpy roads we have here. Fast warm up, and quick turn in. Seems to grip same at pirelli corsa III on my 1125r. Good wear so far, 1000 mi. diablos wore out at 4500mi.

Bike, 1100RT, feels secure in corners.

I have 2 Yamaha FJ1200 and both have PR3 tires. I have 5000 plus miles on the PR3 tires between the two motorcycles. A lot of the miles in the rain. These are the best all around tire I have ever used. The tires show no ware yet. Cornering in the wet is very good. A supper tire.

The tires stick great. Turning is effortless and stopping has no slippage. I haven't ridden them in rain yet so no idea about how much the siping does for traction in that environment yet. Haven't owned long enough to give a rating on tread life either. I can say that Michelin performance has never let me down in the past though and I don't think these tires will let me down either based on everything I read prior to purchasing.

These are a big improvement over the PRs, and The PRII. They felt a bit odd at first and had a long break in to get rid of the slick feel, about 300mi even after carefully scuffing them in. Then they became a very nice set of tires. I have commuted on them a little but mainly east Tn twisty roads. The rear has very predictable slide qualities, and a very even feel to the grip from the center to the edge. The front has had good feel and grip as well. This is nice as the previous roads had about zippo feedback till they let go. I am replacing the set now, I WAS HOPING FOR 6,000mi, BUT as usual 4,500mi they are toast. The front would last longer based on the tread depth but it cupped, (if you trail brake deep to the apex of the turns the front will be hurt). The rear did very well but this tire goes from looking solid to showing cords very quickly, this is difficult to judge because of the solid center of the rear. The wet grip was very good and the cornering in heavy rain was very predictable They warm up at a MODERATE rate so give them a mile or 4, before using in anger. size used 110/80r19, and 150/70r17 on a 2006 Suzuki dl650, I would like to have seen a few more miles out of these at the price. But they were a very good tire good grip, good handling, quiet and smooth, and stayed feeling good throughout their entire life! BUT They last no better than an average sport touring tire.
