FAQs

What is 2CT technology?

2CT (Dual Compound Technology) uses two different rubber compounds on the tire: a harder compound in the center for longevity and a softer compound on the shoulders for improved grip when cornering.

What is the recommended tire pressure?

Refer to your motorcycle's owner's manual or the tire manufacturer's recommendations for the correct tire pressure. Maintaining the correct pressure is crucial for optimal performance and safety.

How often should I check my tire pressure?

Check your tire pressure at least once a week, or before every long ride. Tire pressure can change with temperature fluctuations.

What does XST+ sipe technology do?

XST+ sipe technology features a specific design that enhances water clearing, leading to shorter braking distances on wet surfaces and improved grip.

How do I know when to replace the tires?

Replace your tires when they reach the wear indicator bars (small bars across the tread) or if you notice any damage like cuts, bulges, or uneven wear.

Are these tires suitable for track use?

The Michelin Pilot Road 4 tires are designed primarily for sport touring and street use. While they offer good performance, they are not specifically designed for track racing.

Troubleshooting

Tire feels unstable or wobbly.

Check tire pressure and ensure it matches the motorcycle manufacturer's recommendation. Also, inspect for any signs of damage or uneven wear.

Poor grip in wet conditions.

Verify that the tire is the correct size and type for your motorcycle. Ensure proper tire pressure and check for any signs of wear that may be affecting grip.

Premature tire wear.

Check tire pressure regularly, avoid aggressive riding styles that accelerate wear, and ensure proper wheel alignment.
