Michelin Pilot Road 3 Rear Tires Building on the tremendous reputation Michelin has built over the years, the Michelin Pilot Road 3 Tire is the successor to the award winning Pilot Road 2. With the Michelin Pilot Road 3 Motorcycle Tire you are really getting 2 tires in 1, by integrating a soft rubber compound on the tread shoulders with a wear-resistant compound down the middle, Michelin gives you the best of both worlds. The Pilot Road 3 is a dual compound sport-touring radial tire. Revolutionary X-Sipes technology maximizes wet traction Michelins newest technology delivers all-weather performance without compromising tread life or handling Patented innovation resulting from years of research and development Two compound technology combines tread life and cornering grip 2CT incorporated into all tire sizes, front and rear Wider soft-compound shoulders on the front tire, compared to its predecessor High performance and environmentally sound 100 non-aromatic-oil rubber compound All tires listed are Z rated tires Note The size denoted by B is designed for loaded touring or two-up riding

Have about 250 miles on these so far, replaced stock Z6s on a BMW R1200R. Noticed the difference right away - the PR3's leaned in so much easier and more stable. The bike has never felt more stable and "planted," especially at high lean angles. Same on wet pavement - no unsettling "wavering" of the traction during a wet pavement commute.
I didn't rate tread life, but with the dual compound I'm expecting around 10k out of this set (8500 on the Z6s).
Rides: 2010 BMW R1200R
Yes, I recommend this product.

DC-heated, produces 15 watts of heatat 12.8 Volts (each glove) and should be used with a Firstgear Heat-Troller for optimum safety Y-Harness is required for use with Firstgear Heat-troller (unless you have a Firstgear heated liner, then this is unnecessary) Grade-A, top-grain, drum-dyed cowhide construction Porelle breathable, waterproof membrane Thinsulate layer Pre-curved fingers and finger-mounted,rubber, faceshield wiper Elastic wrist and adjustable hook-and-loop gauntlet closure Reinforced protection in palm Reflective piping on top Make sure to check out our Firstgear Heated Gear Buyers Guide
 

Compatible with a Gerbing's jacket liner?

Interested in buying the Firstgear carbon heated gloves because it looks like they have more protection than the Gerbing's T5, BUT can the Firstgear gloves plug into a Gerbing's liner and work with a Gerbing's controller? I don't want to use separate controllers.

I don't think they can, but would like to verify.
