Here’s what Michelin says about the new trio of tires:
Michelin Power 6: The Everyday Tire, Combining Fun and Sportiness
The Michelin Power 6 tire is aimed at a wide spectrum of sports motorcycle users: for those who are looking for sportiness and pure riding pleasure, this new tire will be the new Michelin reference.
Beyond sport performance, this new Michelin tire keeps an eye on mileage for the daily riders or those who travel long distances on motorcycle trips. The grip in dry and wet conditions, but also its handling and sportiness, make this tire a suitable answer to the demands of motorcyclists. Available in a wide range of sizes, this tire is suitable for motorcycles over 300cc, and it has already been homologated on the new 2024 KTM 390 Duke.
Michelin Power GP2: The Master of Racetrack is Homologated for the Road
Destined for the track, the Michelin Power GP2 is homologated for the road. Aimed at owners of supersports, this evolution of the Michelin Power GP tire enters a new dimension. The new tire delivers an even higher level of grip on wet or dry surfaces than its predecessor, which was already a leading tire in this category. Thanks to its level of riding precision, it amplifies the track experience allowing the most experienced riders to push their limits on the track. Designed by the same team of engineers and using the same development tools as those used for MotoGP tires, the new Michelin Power GP2 benefits from the experience gained by Michelin over the course of its 500 victories in the FIM World Championship.
Michelin Anakee Road: The ‘Michelin’ Road Performance, with a specific trail look
The Michelin Anakee Road is designed to complement the Anakee range, which boasts other patterns for more aggressive off-road usage – Anakee Wild and Anakee Adventure. As trail bikes are very versatile, their range of use is just as wide. In fact, the new Michelin Anakee Road aims motorcyclists who prefer the road to off-road, riding their bike for long road trips as well as for everyday travel. This new tire provides high levels of grip in dry and wet conditions, a long service life and good stability. The bikes in this segment have become lighter over the generations but are still an imposing size and look. Michelin designed the new Anakee Road to be in harmony with the style of these bikes.
