Hyper-sport radial for sport riding or racing. Outstanding grip and precise handling, yet with exceptional durability. Equally at home on the road or race track. The rear Pilot Sport features the patented Michelin radial delta carcass design, which combines the adhesion of a racing tire and the straight-line stability necessary for road riding. Rear tread pattern combines large tread blocks and uniform distribution of the tread grooves, for enhanced grip, efficient water evacuation, and optimal wear pattern. Front tread pattern similar to that of the rear tire, for powerful braking, grip on wet roads, and even tread wear. Pilot Sport is first street tire to use the patented Michelin Silicium tread compound, derived from compounds used in our world champion racing rain tires. Silicium not only enhances wet-weather grip, but durability as well. HPX-Has reinforced casing for open class bikes. |
