Anyone tried PR4's yet.
I've got a set coming at the end of the month. Been running PR3's the last two sets and have nothing but complete faith in them. Absolutely the best rubber I've ever had on any bike.
The new version has all the usual hype. We'll see...

had the pilot roads fitted to mine, the fitter had a bit of trouble getting the front to bead, but its on and 200 miles later fully scrubbed in and complete confidence in them, a worth while up grade with out changing the wheels not bad price as well £210 ride in ride out

My fitter had a little trouble getting the front to bead also, seems it might be common. I have had no trouble with the bike and I have full confidence in the tryres.

Hi Just installed these tires front and rear [ mich pr-3] on my sons bike yesterday . I would agree on having a little trouble to mount. Don't know if the tires are a little tighter on bead specs . I had a little trouble getting them on, even with tire lube and I have a harbor freight MC tire changer with moto lever and mono blocks. Good tires though and if you look at tire places are getting 5 star ratings.

Yeah some tire beads and sidewalls are tough as all hell to work with suffice as
to say the warmer the rubber is the better to manhandle
