Best Radials for Your Iron Man

With summer finally upon us, it’s time to barrel down country roads, break free from the tethers of smartphones, and find a different world out of the 10/10 cubicles. For a lot of folks, this is that time of the year when motorcycle diaries are reopened – saddlebags are repacked – and bike ignitions are fired up to cover some unknown miles.

In a conversation with Trails Of India, many experienced riders shared their excitement of setting out on the roads. It was fun to hear them addressing the mountains, ‘We are ‘UP-COMING’. Also, many steered the conversation to the use of cool bike accessories to keep themselves protected in style. But, the most discussed topic was - motorcycle tyres.

Especially in a country like India, where the terrains are tough, it is a must to have good and reliable bike tyres capable of dealing with harsh tracks. In order to keep you and yours protected, many tyre manufacturers bring new and advanced tyres that provide the right grip – put the power to the ground – and keep you planted in those tricky corners.

One of such manufacturers – Michelin, is delighted to launch their new range of tyres (Pilot Road 4 and Pilot Power 3) for the discerning Indian consumer.

Michelin Pilot Road 4, featuring XST+ technology, is designed for wet weather braking. It helps the tyre stop faster on wet pavements and slippery surfaces, according to the company. Pilot Road 4 also features Michelin’s 2CT dual compound technology with 100 per cent silica compounds for optimum balance between grip and longevity.

On the other hand, Michelin Pilot Power 3 is designed for roadsters and sports bikes. Primarily intended for road use (85 per cent), the new tyre can also deliver a good ride on the track as claimed by the manufacturer. Developed with a combination of 2CT and 2CT+ technology, it offers more stability when cornering, especially under strong acceleration. With the unique tread pattern design, Pilot Power 3 will provide best-in-class braking under wet conditions says Michelin.

The cherry on the cake is that Michelin has one of the best deals to offer this season. Now you get a hydrator bag free on purchase of Michelin radial tyres
