Just got a new set of Michelin PR4's fitted. Ive only done 2 miles on them but the bike feels completely different, in a good way!

Anyway, i bought my old front tyre with me, to sell on eBay and the date stamp is 2707 (27th week in 2007) !!! Yamaha just put whatever sh*t they couldn't sell on it by the looks of things. Who wants to ride around on a fast bike with 7 year old tyres on. Not me!! I'll be talking to my dealer about it.

No wonder they didn't grip, didn't warm up and wore through so damn quickly. Was like riding around on bloody plastic wheels. Even the tyre guys said they had gone hard.

2007?
Was the D214 even produced at that time?
If so, you'd see a lot of small cracks in the walls.
