Hi everybody. I'm new here. Just bought a low mileage R6 and I need to replace the tires. Was looking at michelin pilot road 3s. What advice can you give me? Many thanks

For a start if you are gonna search on tinternet i'd learn how to spell first
it's Tyres
I think you need to let us know what you'll be using the tyres for, road, track or both ??
There's plenty of tyre threads on the forum if you want to have a look around.
Oh and welcome to the forum dude, post up some pics of ya R6 and tell us a bit about yourself

He might be a yank Bub - they don't spell tyres correctly (along with many others)

Hi and sorry for just jumping in. I'm 35 this year. My first bike was an Aprillia rs 125 back in 2001. Past My test in 2004 and bought a new R6. Sold it a year later due to having a baby. Bought a 11 plate r6 last week, so I've been out of biking for a number of years. Will be using the bike for road use only really. Thanks everyone

I'm sure you'd know already be aware but take it easy after being off bikes for so long , drivers are a lot worse these days , also look out for the forum track days , even if you don't do on the track they're still a good crac . Nice R6

Thanks for the concern pal. Yes will take it steady until I'm back into it. Was thinking about doing a track day to get my ability and confidence up

Thanks for the reply Steve. Think I'll go with the michelin pilots then. The back tire [WHITE SMILING FACE] is squared off at the moment so it doesn't like it on corners, so need a new set as soon as
