Service bulletins

1 bulletin

Technical service bulletins are instructions a manufacturer sent its dealers about a known fault. They are not recalls and the work is usually not free, but they are the clearest signal of a problem the manufacturer already knows about.

Service Bulletin/Repair Instructions

To fully exploit the potential of a Supersport motorcycle, appropriate performance tires are required. In our opinion, the Michelin Power Cup 2 best meets this requirement. The disadvantage of these tires is, that there is a low-temperature threshold at which rubber loses elasticity and becomes brittle, called the glass transition point. Rubber breakdown in the cold can manifest as a tiny crack or many larger cracks around the tire. To avoid damage, the Michelin Power Cup 2 must not be handled below 41°F ( 5°C ) in transport and storage.

Complaint counts are reports filed with NHTSA, not failure rates. A common model collects more of them than a rare one that breaks more often.
