Michelin Pilot Road 4 GT Overview
The Michelin Road 4 GT is a part of the same family of tyres within Michelin. It is designed specifically for heavier sport-touring motorcycles.
It shares many features with the standard Road 4. However, it includes additional enhancements to handle the needs and requirements of larger motorbikes.
The GT version offers greater stability and performance, especially when carrying heavy loads.
Key Features:
- 2AT Dual Angle Technology. Combines the benefits of bias-ply and radial constructions. This provides the rider with more stability and comfort on heavier bikes.
- Enhanced Load Capacity. Built to manage the extra weight of larger motorcycles. Including additional luggage and passengers.
- XST+ Sipe Technology. Like the Road 4, it boosts wet grip and braking, crucial for safe riding in various conditions.
Michelin Pilot Road 4 Scooter Overview
The Michelin Pilot Road 4 Scooter (also known as the Pilot Road 4 SC) belongs to the same range as the Pilot Road 4 GT, but it has been specifically designed to meet the needs of scooters.
Aimed at the Maxi-Scooter segment, this tyre has been developed to provide riders with safe and stable handling. Even in wet conditions.
Key Features:
- Michelin Water Brake Technology. Featuring specialist sipes and chamfers on the tyre’s tread pattern to break the surface film of water – improving braking performance.
- Silica Based Rubber Compound. Provides an excellent level of grip and traction when riding on both wet and dry roads.
- Michelin 2CT technology. A special blended compound which is durable in the centre and softer at the edges. Giving riders the ability to achieve impressive lean angles.
