Michelin has used the Australian MotoGP at Phillip Island last weekend to release the French manufacturer’s new Power RS tyre with a core focus on dry-weather grip, agility, stability and peerless handling performance.

The Power RS is targeted at sports road riders and has achieved a high level of performance through Michelin’s longstanding expertise combined with its experience in top-flight racing and the diversification of its innovations.

The combination of new rubber compounds – some of which are derived from racing – and a new carcass, has resulted in unparalleled grip on dry roads and a unique rider experience. The innovative rear tyre features a patented construction which benefits from Michelin ACT+ technology for impeccable straight-line and cornering stability.

Available in 13 Power RS sizes (four for the front tyre, plus nine for the rear tyre), the new Michelin’s cover a broad spectrum of motorcycles from 300cc learner bikes to high-capacity, high-performance machines as well as medium power roadsters.

On sale from January 2017, more information on the Power RS including where to find your local dealer is available via moto.michelin.com.au.
