    Michelin Road 6

    Thread Starter: SaferRides

    I fitted a set of these to the R1 last April. They've now covered 11,000 km during all 4 seasons and now is probably a good time to post a few comments. Like me, you may have assumed the Road 6 is simply an evolution of the 5, as they look similar. But they feel very different on the R1. The...

      we talked about different ideas, and the reality is getting as much land as we need to run a trail ride is very hard, so this was an option that worked a lot better, esp since i think we need to do it sooner rather than later

      My boy and a friends boy had an awesome time on the mini track yesterday - not many on it so they had the track for the entire day. Track was in awesome condition & Brooky just got faster and more air as the day went on.

      He spent some time watching the riders on the big track jump that massive jump - he can't wait to try it (i'm not so keen to watch him haha)

      Awesome day - thanks to all those involved in running it - well worth it.
