The Michelin Power Slick 2 Motorcycle Tyre has been designed purely for track use by French Endurance racer Jeff Cortinovis, purely for track riders whose main priority is speed. Michelin started their development of Slick Tyre's in 1974, and this has continued to this day with them leading the way in MotoGP.
The Tyres use 2CT on the front and 2CT+ on the rear. 2CT successfully accomplishes two conflicting ideals - wear resistance in the centre of the tread, and grip on the Shoulders, providing total performance with longevity and grip. This technology has derived from MotoGP, making it possible to use two distinct rubber compounds to achieve what was once thought impossible a combination of the best wet grip and best mileage. 2CT+ provides a harder rubber underneath the softer rubber on the Shoulders to give better rigidity at lean, for more stability when cornering, especially under strong acceleration, providing total performance of stability, longevity and grip.
They also use SCT (Synthetic Component Technology) - Michelin racing synthetic elastomers used in rubber compounds in conjunction with high tech synthetic compound resins promote ultra-fast warm up to optimum operational temperatures - offering total performance for a quick installation system.
The sidewalls on these Tyres feature Michelin's Premium Touch Technology, and a Silica Compound has been used to provide impeccable grip which aids those who are looking to find those few extra tenths during track sessions.
