Probably up to their shelf life?

Mmm, not bad. Got em on my bike and they're pretty good. I got mine supplied and fitted to loose wheels for £145 last yr tho so worth trying the fitters too.

Just ordered a pair won't have them on the bike long enough to worry about shelf life, not my favorit tyre but at that price I can't resist

My falco came fitted new with these tyres Fausto, they are not as good as Diablo or BT 014s but still a fine tyre and perform well as you would expect from Michelin..
Michelin pilots come in around £210-235 fitted by local outlets in the past but have bean typically sold unfitted for around £160-185 mail order.
I believe Michelin want to shift the old stock now that they are making the Pilot 2.
I can fit my own tyres if need be but It's hard work
I have tyre fitter friends
Most fitters will do it for you on loose wheels for around £10 but balancing is sometimes an issue as not all have the equipment, no big deal..
What does it mean? I like to hang on to my money
Just did a quick calulation based on my old invoices, I have used 11 rear tyres and 6 fronts at a cost of around £1,546 since owning my falco
don't tell the wife

Thanks Thumper.
I hope you got a few thousand miles in there. 33000 at least?Just did a quick calulation based on my old invoices, I have used 11 rear tyres and 6 fronts at a cost of around £1,546 since owning my falco

Not entirely sure Fausto what the total mileage covered by my falco is although I did 11,000 in the first year.
I road without a speedometer for some time and suffered two failed sensors in my ownership since August 2001
The clock was replaced under warranty for no good reason as was one sensor.
My best guess because I lost my some of my records is about 35K the bike didnt get much use in 2004.
