[Ducati] Michelin vs. Bridgestone

[Ronald Betts]

My son has a set of the Pilots on his 999 and he used them up really fast. 
He said that my bike with the Battleax's felt really planted in situations 
that made him nervous on his 999. Of course his has a little more poop than 
my ole SP but you get the idea.



Peace...Ron"Desmohead"Betts 95 900 SP
I've learned that I don't suffer from insanity, I enjoy it!
