misinformation lol #1 the sticky part of the tire is wider on the RS/GP, and they're not completely the same composition wise. The GP will tear way more aggressively and no not last as long as the road 5. Impossible theyre exactly the same. The Power 5 is simply the tire that sits right below the GP. It having more side ipes is irrelevant 99.9% of the time but I guess that too.

Still waiting for mileage update ?

I've had the Power 5s on my 2021 S1000RR for a while now and I gotta say I love these tyres. If you're accustomed to more of the Pirelli V shape these are going to feel really slow at first as you lose the quick tip in. However what you get makes up for it IMO. You get a consistent feel all the way around the tyre and it gives you so much confidence. 50°+ lean no sweat. Long sweeping corners at 200kph no problem. Never running out of grip you can just push and push. Quick to warm up. Great wet weather performance (seriously!). Mileage seems to be good so far no squaring off as of yet. A bit pricy due to them being new but I'll buy these again for sure.

To all the people who said this review is confusing. Its really easy to understand the Michelin tyre range. If it has ROAD in the name its a sport touring tyre. If it has POWER in the name its a sports tyre. ROAD 5 100% ROAD SPORT TOURING TYRE POWER 5 100% ROAD SPORT TYRE POWER GP 50/50 ROAD/TRACK TYRE. POWER CUP 2 90% TRACK DAY TYRE 10% ROAD. ITS A ROAD LEGAL TRACK TYRE. Just be honest with what and how you ride and choose accordingly.

Hi, Revzilla. Any development on the wear of both tires? Which one gives a better mileage?

Are the new power5 and road5 comparable? And of they are which ones better? Because i havent found any reviews on Vs. On them.

Jumping back and forth in your explication butween the two then bringing in two other tires from the lineup is super confusing, maybe a quick chart for Michelin tires would help, road 5, road 5 gt, power 5, power 5 gt, and where they should spend most there time. I know all tgese tires and im confused by this explanation! (With all due respect, i love your videos)

I've gone from Michelin Pilot Power 2's to Bridgestone Battlax S22's bc the PP2's are discontinued. I researched a lot and learned about tires needing certain temps for optimum performance and traction. What are the temp requirements for each of these, like do either of these need more heat for better traction or the same? If don't know for sure, please don't guess. I don't want misinformation. Riding style and road surface has a lot to do with tire temps as well. Maybe they're too new but I found a lot more positive reviews for the S22's than the PP5's. I'd like to see a review comparing those 2. Also what's main difference between the Michelin Pilot Power 5 and Pilot Road 5?

Any chance you can do a review on the Michillen Pilot GP for Underbones? Thanks.

Is there did you make a Bridgestone s22 vs Michelin road 5 video? 95% street rider i may bring my bike to a track this summer switched from Bridgestone bt16pro’s to the s22 and 100% way better tire but id like to know what would last longer and get my miles worth and be able to put power down the road 5’s or s22

Have a 2021 mt 09 with the sp 22’s and love them but 3,400 miles later there already starting to square off on the middle. Love those twisties but take a little of straight road driving before getting there. Going to give the power 5 a shot.

What the difference in mileage on a rear of the 5s and gps i have a set of gps on now and love them but seam like they wore out fast and will be honest if i wasn't working on wheelie would have lasted longer

Once you've tested these tires, can you answer this question? Which tire is the most similar to the Power RS? I have had these tires on my tuono and I'm very happy with them. I was particularly impressed when I ridden in rain, and they didn't throw any fits, for a sporty tire.

On high lean angles they are just slicks, an advantage. I can't see why anybody wants to have grooves until the edge of his tire. In particular 'the more carefull drivers' in the wet and on the street - they don't go track - never use the last 20 millimeter of tread towards max lean - so, even with reduced length of the grooves, getting away water to the outside should be no problem. If in theorie it passes outside a tires end or end of groove 20 mills earlier - does anybody see (inside the splash) or even recognize? The water will leave the groove end of streetcontact of the tire anyway - that's way before end of groove. But the markets will have to find out over tim, convince themselves - educating the markets here by a single manufacturer may just bring danger for the brand and costs for him. But individuals are free to choose on their own today already for the max rubber while cornering with higher lean angles, nice to have. And i want to buy rubber for to drive on anyway, not them grooves. 😉

Ima pirelli angel GT guy, but im very disappointed on the GT2. They feel like the bike is slipping going over pavement like surfaces on the high way. Like how when you go over those patches on the road where they fill the cracks with. Regular GTs never had this issue. Even tho the GT2 is alot better as far as grip goes, that one con about them is irritating. Im willing to bet its the two center lines thats going around the whole tire. So im thinking about switching to ROAD 5.

Composition is not the same. Power 5 is all silica, GP has silica on center and black carbon on the sides. Makes a difference!

Same been on then since the get go in 2006 when I bought them for my 06 gsxr750. Loved them on all my bikes since..tried Q3 tires that cane on a bike I bought and didnt like them at all. But now what to get since no more 2Ct's are being made? Thinking to give power 5's a try I found them for $250/set vs $405 for Q3+ set

@@JRDNGIXX I just got a rear pilot power 2ct from @revzilla came in like 3 days that was nice it seems they still have a few left . When ready to change both tires probably late July I will try power 5’s they’ve got a few options in the power 5 . I want the pirelli sp v3 but I they’re super costly and I hear only good for driest of weather I don’t ride in the rain anyway but a light mist I’m usually caught in . So power 5’s it is

I've had both on my bikes and imo the Power 5 is not worth it. Provides maybe a little bit more grip than the Road 5 but I can use both on the track, the Road 5s tend to get a bit too hot but that's okay if you take a few breaks but it's completely fine for twisties. Apart from that Power 5 was gone in 4.5k miles on the rear, whilst my Road 5s lasted 14k miles on the same bike. The fronts of the power 5 are exceptional though and provide much better feel than the Road 5 whilst still offering decent wet grip, Imo Road 5 on the rear and Power 5 on the front is a VERY nice combo, the fronts last much longer than the Power 5 rears anyway so if you get a Road 5 rear and Power 5 front (since they are basically identical profile) they will wear out about the same rate.

Got the same out of my P5 rear. My P5 front will do close to double.

2 track days, 18000klms out of my power road 5s, probably another 2k but double puncture seen the end to that, just put another set on, great tyre, lots of street and highway miles here in Western Australia through tough climates.

Road 5s are great, I've tried the power 5s cos i was like "the road 5 is so good in the wet I've never even come close to slipping so maybe i can sacrifice a but of wet grip for handling" I went for the Power 5s and sure enough, if the road 5 is 60/40 for dry/wet then the power 5 is a 70/30, still immensely good in the wet compared to other tyres but it did the occasional slip over a wet manhole cover or paint lines, nothing major though, however the mileage is terrible. They cost the same as the Road 5s and only last 1/3 the miles. I honestly can't tell the difference for dry grip between the 2, the only problem with the road 5s is a bit less feel and they tend to overheat on the track if you go out for too long too hard, but it's manageable by taking a cooldown lap or just taking a short break, but that's it.

I've been using the road 5 on my Ninja for about a year and a half and they're great. I can't imagine anyone on the street ever needing more grip than that and then the added benefit of having awesome grip in heavy downpours as well. I don't know how well the Power 5 would do in those conditions though, might be good enough to get you to where you need to go. No one is really pushing it in downpours anyway.

I’ve ran road 5 on wet roads during a down pour and water runoffs tire really perform we’ll really pushed it, slightly losing grip while having a passenger it was sketchy but I wanted to push it to the edge and it didn’t disappoint I highly recommend em the 6’s are a great tire too and now I wanna try the power 5 a buddy has the power GP and his a die hard Rosso 4 guy and so far he is impressed with em on his 23 SK1RR

Not sure why I missed this review. I am on my 3rd or 4th set on my 2020 Super Duke GT and they are amazing...AMAZING. I am getting about 4K miles on a rear which is pretty good considering some of the more aggressive Super Duke R and GT rider have gotten as few as 1200 miles... I am really hoping we will se a Power 6 soon. I have seen a couple of reviews on the Diablo Rosso IV (not available when this video launched)

Yes! Power 5 is a new tyre, Power GP replaces the Power RS/RS+.

I bought it today.

Not a big fan of the tread pattern on these new tyres.

The tyre composition and compound is the same, the only difference is the tread 6% on Power GP vs 11% on Power 5. Most people don't know that. I'll definitely be getting Power 5, better all round tyre.

These statements are arguable. Many people prefer the famous S22 or the M7RR for the road. Many people prefer Dunlops for the track.

I think Spurge is expecting .

I mounted Power 5's on my zx14r. 3000 miles in the front tire is hardly worn at all. The rear is at about half life. Problem here is a bad one though. As I pass 100 mph the bike begins to shake, a definite tremor from the tires and not a bike malfunction. It gets progressively worse the faster you go. SO, I will not buy these again. They replaced S21's which NEVER vibrated no matter how fast. I've heard from others they've had the same problem. It's not an isolated incident. Beware.

Sounds like you never rode the Power GP tires, not a way for a good review if you haven't ridden them hard.

Not interested until front tires get 2CT+ thingy

@aidenlothian9642

3 жыл бұрын

doesn't need 2ct+ on the front. The + means the centre harder compound goes from the centre of the tyre to the edge of the tyre and the softer stickier compound found at the edge of the tyre is place on top of that harder compound giving the shoulders of the tyre extra support at lean for use for example under acceleration ect. Even Michelins new Power Cup 2 doesn't have 2ct+ on the front so it's not that these are somewhat budget tyres because it's lacking that feature. I'm not sure any tyre has 2ct+ on the front. It's simply not needed.

Those "dimples" on the side are a joke by Michelin. They're gone in 50 miles.

Dunlop for life!!!
