Michelin tyre recommendations for Ducati\'s
 

The Michelin webpage for this section didnt work properly, you need to select Ducati from the tyre fitment page and leave the other two fields empty before pressing the 'search button......

Good Luck - Frank

Michellin - no thanks!!!!

well said webby
BRIDGESTONE !
BRIDGESTONE :sing:

Michelins :o

Gotta say I'm leaning towards Supercorsa's anyway - hopefully - lol

Michelins Recommendation for Ducatis:
 

"Buy Pirelli/Bridgestone/Dunlop,......


Anything but ours!"


:lol:

I wouldn't burn Michelins to keep the bike warm in winter! I have recently discovered Bridgestones 012ss's and wouldn't switch back having tried just about eveything else. They are a great all round tyre IMHO. Wet / dry / track / road.

Bridgestones for me,though I've just been tempted by a good price on pirelli diablo's.
I think I'd rather run the wheel rims than michelins.....I'd get more grip in the rain.:lol:

hey Michelins are great if you like that "i'm on ice" feeling on a nice summers day ....

sorry CK ... (that puncture was a message)

:frog:

Ok guys I have only run Michelins on my 996 so will take your advise and fit bridgestones next time .
do I fit BT101
or BT 020

No Mark you want 012SS - speak to Tyreman nicely.

I get about 70% off through Mclaren but still have to get them fitted and balanced ect.

Mark:lol::lol::lol:

Talking of burning Michelins, only do it when there hung over a speed/safety/tax collecting camera. :devil:

Oooh did I really say that.

A thousand hail Marys.

Hi thought the suspension was faulty on my 916,had the suspesion set up at pro v twins because the bike felt so bad. but looking at this thread it might be the pilot sports that were on the bike when i bought it.They just dont feel right i have no confidence in the rear end at al,l it just feels like its moving all the time:(Any advice welcome bike used only for sunny rides and one or two track days,only do about 2k a year on it so milage not an issue.

Ok webbyc
BT-012SS it is then
will order them next week
thanks Mark :):)

Not only does the webpage not work on Dukes neither do their tyres work for me on my Duke! Thanks for the good luck wishes Frank, but to my mind using Michelins on typical cold wet British roads needs as much luck as you can get. Take care and choose wisely cos more money dont always mean more grip!

There are some threads I wish I\'d never started.....
 

and this is the second one :D

Dont worry guys, some supercorsas will be going on my little cycle as soon as I can afford em !!!
