Great all weather tyre
I was so impressed with these that I decided to try a set of Michelins on my race bike too. And I definitely was not disappointed.
Power cup 2 track days
At cadwell park, I've got 2 track days in t intermediate group, with more left for another 1 nx week. The tyres going
Great tyres
Great track tyre for early in season when weather cooler . . . Ow using power cup slicks in warmer weather and love these too
Rail like grip in the dry
After years riding with Pirelli super corsa I thought I’d try something different mainly as they looked cool took it out and scrub them in this evening on a 1290 super Duke and they are absolutely brilliant. They warm up fast scrubbed and easy don’t offer as much feedback as a Pirelli SC, but on our shit UK roads do you need it? Really pleased with them they give a rail like grip at fair lean angle and just encourage you to get on the gas where they dig in and drive you forward without fuss. I think I’ve just found my new favourite tyre. Now to find time to get to Snetterton for an evening session.
Power cup 2
Just finished track day at Donington Park . Found tyres to be very good what ever i asked they delivered with super grip ( dry track ) also found to be very good on the road Not used in wet conditions ( yet)
SUITABLE FOR APPOINTMENT
I use CUP2 in serpentines with TrackDay with Aprilia Tuono, BMW RR and Speed Triple RS. I am 100% satisfied with working in temperatures above 20 degrees Celsius.
Awesome trackday tyre
This tyre is basically a race slick with a little 'legal' tread own the middle so that you can ride your bike to the track. Dual compound is a good thing on this baby, to prevent any squaring. I love Michelin tyres, but the the Cup 2 is my new love of all tyres. Gives me so much confidence turning in on the brakes and the rear much confidence on the exit. Short tyre life but who cares cos I want my RSV4 to have the best boots for the job.
3 days at Circuit Parcmotor
Gobsmacked how good these tyres are. Took a spare set but didn’t need them. Outstanding grip, stability and turn in, my 2021 BMW S1000RR M felt absolutely rock sold on this rubber. They are now my tyre of choice going forward.
800 miles ??
Very grippy tyres but only got 800 miles on my SD 1290rr before centre of the rear tyre started to break up, not really an option unless you can afford to burn money/rubber
Power cup 2
Power cup 2 is not as good on the road as a supercorsa on a gen3 superduke
