Has anyone in here used any of the Michelin pilot road or sport tires?
I need to replace the BT57's on my YZF600 and was curious what
people thought of these.

Yes, I currently have the Pilot Roads on two different bikes an 04 ST1300A
and an 07 FZ1 both bikes have high horsepower engines and these tires should
easily handle the power of the YZF600. They have great wet weather handling,
are stable and predictable in the dry when pushed. The mileage of the Roads
will be much better than the Sports. I would only recommend the Sport if you
do track days. They do have one down fall in that they a fairly noisy tire
the new Pilot Road 2 CT due out in the fall should fix this as they have a
pattern similar to the Pilot Sport.

Thanks for the reply. I decided to go with the Pilot Road. Seems like the
best for what im using the bike for.
