Michelin City Grip 2 120/80 R14 Yamaha Aprilia rsv4 factory 12,000 miles September 5, 2023
So , its third time when im replaying tyre
First set of stock tyres was awful, I replaced them with city grip 2 after a month .
So tyres in front made around 13k miles , front of tricity is quite heavy due to suspension so they wear out quicker
Rear around 17k

Im daily driving with 30kg of tools so this may have a small impact but maybe 10% more.

They need 5min to warm up to be super sticky,
In wet its good not great, i can only comare them with stock ..

Using this tires on the 250cc scooter and grip like train on the rail. Grea ton both wet and dry (in torrential rain of Malaysia), and confident on the corner at speed. LImited by the bravery of the rider. Tire is fitted at the front (reverse tread) as the similar tire but 150/70-13 is at the rear. Wear seems to be good at 3000km, and expected to be able to last another 12k km.
