2014 Motorrad Premium Touring Motorcycle Tire Test P5 of 7

As Roadsmart 2 swings the pendulum towards sportiness - what does that mean? A lot of stability, less maneuverability. And it needs to be brought up to temperature.

Winner: Michelin Pilot Road 4

Disaster waiting to happen. I simply do not understand how people find them safe. My rear is literally slipping in every single corner in fast twisties when I ride with more guts than I have. I think Conti Road Attack is 10x better and safer. Michelins are also a no for me. (Bmw r1100rt).
