Needed to replace my Bridgestones (don’t remember which style) and went with Michelin Road 6 GTs because that’s what the dealer had available.

They are awesome! They seem quieter at highway speeds, and handle beautifully on turns. In fact, I had to adjust my riding style because where the Bridgestones seemed to resist more than a certain amount of lean, the Road 6s are happy to roll to whatever lean I want :).

I wonder if that last observation was due to the Bridgestones age and wear. Could cupping cause what I felt?
