MICHELIN - 42526 - City Grip 2 Tire
As factory equipment on scooters like the Yamaha X-Max and Piaggio Beverly, the Michelin City Grip 2 has to deliver real wet-weather confidence, which it does through silica-based compounds and shark tooth sipes engineered specifically for slippery pavement. This 110/70-16 front fitment carries the same all-season traction and extra mileage over its predecessor that made the line an OE standard across more than 20 scooter models. Rated 52S, it's built for street riders who want proven, manufacturer-trusted grip.
