Just had a new Michelin Pilot Road 2 fitted to the back of my XT. Quite glad to see the back of the Pirelli. Hopefully this one should give me a bit more milage and a high level of grip. Here's some pics. I'll update this in a few weeks once I have worn all the top coat off (and I mean all of it!) to let you know what I think.
Some point too in the near future I plan to replace the front with a Michelin Pilot Power 2CT or maybe even something even stickier.... I know everyone loves pics so here are some!
