    Used Michelin PILOT ROAD 2CT SET

    front 120/70/17
    rear 190/50/17

    Currently on my 07 thou. Looking to get a new set of tyres in the next week or two and get them scrubbed in ready for some summer fun.

    This set still has quite a bit of life left in them. I would say at least another 4000kms, easily more if your a soft rider. Good for the summer but probably not the best if doing a lot of wet riding.

    Fark knows what a used set like this is worth, so ill put $150, and let you guys decide what to buy them for.

    Tyres are still on bike for at least another week or two. Dont worry ill be lucky if i get 50kms done in that time. If you want to buy them urgently then no probs ill go down to the shop and get them taken off and sent off.

    Cheers guys.

    Despite the reputation for high mileage, there's not a huge amount left there. Your front is triangulating and the rear is close to done in the centre.
    I'd hazard a guess and say $50.
    And no, I don't want them.
    Do you realise how many holes there could be if people would just take the time to take the dirt out of them?

    as you can see there is about .5mm tread before the wear indicator is up.
    This tyre is barley WOFable.


    just do a phat smokey outside the tyre shop and ask for a discount, cheeper imo...

    I've got a pair of these on my bike. I am interested in what the wear indicator is so I know how much I have left? Where is it? What colour? Etc? Thanks in advance.
    Sleep is for the weak.

    The wear indicator is a little 'bridge' down inside one or more of the grooves. It is just part of the tyre. When the part of the tyre that touches the road wears down to the point where the bridge is now also touching the road, your tyre is no longer warrantable. I think all tyres, car included, have them.
