Michelin Pilot Road 4 tires

New tires ** Michelin Pilot Road 4 ** designed for public roads and are suitable for most categories of motorcycles with engine capacity of more than 600 cc. cm.

MICHELIN Pilot Road 4, which refers to one of the most competitive and innovative tyre segments, presented in three versions: Standard, GT and Trail.

Michelin representatives say that the new rubber ensures maximum safety in the most common road conditions, especially during rain and under heavy braking. In addition, the French tyre makers argue that a model Pilot Road 4 not only has higher performance, but is noticeably longer than the previous model Pilot Road 3.

To achieve a high level of tire characteristics ** Michelin Pilot Road 4 ** applied the following four key technologies: ** technology MICHELIN 2 CT (2 piece rubber technology);

** MICHELIN technology XST (X-Sipe technology);

** MICHELIN technology XST + (an improved version of the tread pattern with patented lamelizacii MICHELIN XST);

** innovative patented technology MICHELIN 2 AT (Dual Angle Technology) used in revolutionary by design, bus GT version.

For Sport-touring motorcycle stability is an important element, and the Michelin company has patented an innovative solution that satisfies this requirement: ** MICHELIN technology 2AT ( Dual Angle Technology) . This technology provides an exceptionally steady movement, regardless of whether you travel with a passenger or alone, with or without baggage, move along a straight line or in rotation.

Truly revolutionary, patented by Michelin MICHELIN 2AT technology is the result of five years of research and development. This technology contributes to increased comfort when driving heavy motorcycles by providing tyres stiffness required for better cornering and straight.

This advanced technology also requires the use of innovative production process.

Technology MICHELIN 2AT makes a new tire on a 15% stiffer than the previous generation bus.

To achieve such a result, MICHELIN technology provides a unique combination of elements 2AT diagonal and radial designs, meaning each design taken from the best quality (diagonal: increased carrying capacity/radial design: increased comfort).

XST technology in the tread, which contacts the road covering, there are special lamella and tanks that break down a layer of water on the road and improve drainage of water from contact area, bringing strength can compare with that characteristic almost dry roads.

The essence of technology XST + consists of transverse lamellae, improving brake performance. These edges beveled slats, which helps prevent wear Sipes in extreme operating conditions.

Transverse slats front tires break layer of water on the road surface, guaranteeing exceptional braking performance in rainy weather.

Longitudinal lamellas on the back of the bus are used to optimize the transmission and better traction accelerating momentum.

This new tread pattern is designed to optimize the front and rear tires on both dry and wet roads, as well as to ensure uniform wear.

Front and rear tires are created using the technology of compound 2 piece ** MICHELIN 2 CT ( Two ** Compound ** Technology ) **. This technology involves the use of softer composition in the shoulder areas and more wear-resistant composition in the tread. This approach is intended to increase the service life of tires and optimize traction.

In conjunction with the technology of XST + (X‑Sipe) 2 CT technology ensures even wear even for very intensive use. It is even wear supported a pledge of long life tyres and performance throughout this period.
