Default 2ct michelin pilot powers

are these going to last a shorter amount of time than the old pilot powers with the dual compound?

Its the same tire. 2ct is 2 compound technology or something along those lines.

I think it's actually a new version. It's been in every motorcycle for the past few months.

ll----ll <---thats my tire . now picture the ll being the edge of the tire and the ---- being the center. The 2ct technology put racing compound where the ll is and a normal pilot power street compound where the ---- is. It's essentially a tire you can ride to the track on, race on, and ride back home on. A performance tire that you can get into on the twisties and ride out to them on the highway fine. I hope that helped a little. Come buy them from me.

and pirelli just came out with essentially the same design on the new corsa lll's (corsa 3's)

yeah, i was just concerned with the second compound being softer on the outside for obvious reasons which usually would wear quicker...they sound pretty nice though. thanks everyone
