Yet you never feel totally reassured in wet weather. The answer?

"Grip and feedback are both better.
You can anticipate more effectively,
and react more swiftly if necessary,"
noted Michelin's test rider
in his final assessment.
In other words :
MICHELIN City Grip helps
you stay in control, whatever the riding
conditions. At last, your scooter will be able
to revel in the rain!
*MICHELIN PST : Progressive Sipe Technology
Full-depth sipes which break up
the water's surface film, no matter
how much the tread is worn.
A gradual increase in the number of
sipes in contact with the ground as
you lean into turns.

MICHELIN BIB-MOUSSE – GENERAL INFORMATION
• MICHELIN BIB-MOUSSE is intended for off-road competition use only, and in association with MICHELIN tyres. It
is marked 'NHS' (Not for Highway Service). As a consequence, a motorcycle equipped with MICHELIN BIB-MOUSSE
may not be used on public highways.
We do not recommended the use of BIB-MOUSSE in conjunction with other brands of tyre.
• MICHELIN BIB-MOUSSE must not be stored for long periods at temperatures in excess of 30°C, and temperatures
in excess of 40°C should be avoided at all times.
• MICHELIN BIB-MOUSSE has a maximum life expectancy of six months after its initial fitment to the motorcycle. Its
life expectancy is significantly impaired by intensive use.
• When new, MICHELIN BIB-MOUSSE is equivalent to an inflation pressure of approximately 0.9 bar. This pressure
gradually diminishes with time leading to the necessity for it to be replaced.
• The life expectancy of MICHELIN BIB-MOUSSE may vary significantly as a function of the intensity of the use to
which it is put and of the discipline for which it is employed. For example, its life expectancy is shorter when used
for motocross than for enduro.
• Before using BIB-MOUSSE at high speeds, it is recommended that the MICHELIN tyre/BIB-MOUSSE should first be
warmed up gradually.

THE MOTORCYCLE OR SCOOTER TYRE,
AN ESSENTIEL PRODUCT FOR THE SAFETY
OF YOUR CUSTOMERS
Tyres are the only points of contact between a motorcycle or scooter and the road.
The total contact area between a motorcycle's two tyres and the road is approximately 100 sq.
centimetres, equivalent to the surface area of two credit cards. It is consequently essential to protect
the quality and performance of your tyres.

TYRE SELECTION
As a professional technician, the choice of a tyre that does not strictly
conform to the original-equipment specifications for a particular bike
must be validated by you. Never use a tyre beyond its technical capacities (pressure, load index and speed rating)
INSPECTION
Tyres must be inspected on a routine basis for irregular wear patterns,
which can be an indication of incorrect inflation pressure, overloading
or mechanical problems. An under-inflated or overloaded tyre that is
ridden for a prolonged period may suffer irreversible damage that can
have serious consequences, even if the tyre is returned to correct inflation pressure.
Tyres should be inspected regularly, with particular attention paid to:
• The tread area, to detect the presence of debris, cuts, deterioration
or irregular wear patterns;
• Sidewalls, to detect impact damage (from potholes or kerbs), cuts,
cracking or abnormal deformation;
• The bead area, noting any trace of rubbing or rim damage. If you suspect any problems, you should inspect the tyre internally and externally.
WEAR
The primary function of the tread is adhesion with the road. As tyre
wear progresses over time, the tyre’s capacity to clear water decreases;
consequently, you should advise your customers to reduce their riding
speeds in wet conditions
Remember to check regularly for tyre wear, by observing knob height
and uniformity of the wear pattern.
Factors affecting wear: a tyre’s durability is dependent on seven major
31
Bead wire
Sidewall
Bead area

factors. Some are within the rider’s control, such as inflation pressure,
loads carried, vehicle speed and riding style (braking and acceleration). Others are beyond the rider’s control and require adaptation of
one’s riding style: road profile, type of surface, ambient temperature.
Remember that mechanical problems can also cause premature wear,
including warped rims, worn suspension components, loose steeringhead bearings and/or frame misalignment.
Any one of these factors can have a detrimental effect on tread life;
a combination of several factors will cause significant wear.
INFLATION
Correct inflation is essential to the rider’s safety, for comfort and for
the tyre’s durability. Adhering to the manufacturers’ recommended
pressures plays a major part in the vehicle’s handling.
It is a major influence on the motorcycle’s handling, both in a straight
line and when cornering, even at low speeds and when braking.
Riding on under inflated tyres can cause premature wear, irreversible
damage to the tyre and, possibly, sudden loss of air which can have
catastrophic consequences.
Tyres lose air gradually. It is essential to check pressures when tyres
are cold at least every two weeks. If the pressure is checked during or
after a ride, the tyres will be hot, which will increase the indicated
pressure. Never bleed air from a hot tyre.
If the pressure reading is lower than the recommended pressure, air
must be added to the tyre. Keep in mind that the indicated pressure
of a hot tyre can be as much as 0.3 bar higher than the recommended cold pressure.
After checking pressures, don’t forget to reinstall the valve cap, which
provides added protection for the valve mechanism.
Only when participating in a legitimate, sanctioned
competition event may rider preferences supersede
manufacturers’ pressure recommendations
Pressures should be adjusted depending on type of terrain, weather
conditions, the motorcycle’s power output, and the style of riding.

FITTING, BALANCING, REMOVAL
The fitting and demounting of tyres, as well as balancing, should be
undertaken only by a professional technician; improper handling of
the tyre can damage it and put your customer’s safety at risk.
When replacing a tyre, you must ensure the following:
• that the replacement tyre is of the same size as the original;
• that the speed rating and load index of the replacement tyre are
correct;
• for certain motorcycles, the manufacturer specifies a particular brand
and model of tyre. If in any doubt, always refer to the owner’s manual
or the tyre manufacturer’s fitment guide for confirmation.
The valve and valve cap should be replaced whenever a tyre is changed, as these are essential to ensuring that the tyre is airtight.
It is illegal to ride on a public highway with slick or re-cut tyres or any
tyres that are marked NHS (Not for Highway Service) or “FOR COMPETITION USE.”
In line with the European Directive 2001/95/CE, tyre distributors and
users should pay particular attention when dealing with tyres that are
not homologated for road use. Display of such tyres in sales outlets
must clearly show that these tyres are not homologated for road use.
Moreover, the dealer must inform the customer of any elements necessary to their use* and of the risks involved if used in an unauthorised
manner.
REPAIRS
In the event of a puncture, you should conduct the internal and external inspections necessary to determine whether the tyre is repairable.
As a specialist, you are the only person able to undertake a repair and
that will be entirely at your own responsibility. Injection of air-tight
products (tyre repair spray…) through the valve can only provide shortterm solutions.
VERY IMPORTANT:
After removing a tyre and before repairing it, you must thoroughly
check its interior. Traces of marbling in the sidewall/tread area show
that the tyre has been run under inflated and therefore the damage
could show up again during running. In such a case, the
tyre cannot be repaired.
Tyres showing any of the following damage should not be used again:
• Deformed or visible bead wire
• Loose rubber or casing plies
• Folded rubber or casing plies
• Deterioration through grease or corrosive materials
• Internal rubber marbling caused by running under inflated
RUNNING-IN
When the tyre is new:
• Remove labels before fitting the tyre to the motorcycle or scooter.
• During the first 100 kilometres, the vehicle should be ridden
at moderate speed, and cornering angles should be increased progressively, until the tyre reaches its optimal performance
WARM-UP
You should advise your clients that during the first few miles of each
ride, they should travel at moderate speed until the tyres achieve operating temperature and optimal grip.
MIXING TYRES
All recommendations and precautions are based on equipping
the motorcycle or scooter with MICHELIN tyres both front and rear.
Unless specifically recommended by Michelin, crossply and radial tyres
should not be combined on a motorcycle or scooter, to prevent
unstable handling.
HANDLING AND STORAGE
Tyres must be stored in dry, ventilated and temperature-controlled
conditions, protected from direct sunlight and inclement weather.
• Away from all chemicals, solvents or hydrocarbons, which can adversely affect the rubber mixture.
• Away from sharp objects that can puncture the tyre, including metal,
wood
• Away from heat sources or electrical devices.
Non-respect of these recommendations could affect the performance
of a vehicle, could cause problems with its handling and/or could cause
the tyre to fail which could endanger the safety of the user as well as
that of other parties.
Michelin cannot be held liable for any damages that arise through any
use not in accordance with his instructions.
