its just a normal street tire, i wouldn't expect to hear anything too exciting. i'm sure it's a good tire, but its not a drag tire.

The power one ain't a built drag tire either but we all know how fast and how many records it holds RIGHT

You are correct the power race was a great tire just discontinued now
The Power One is a great tire.
The Power Pure is the newest tire from Michelin and that is why they sent me some to test on drag race bikes to see if they would work.Which testing will happen this weekend and the tire has done been 8.30 in competition .

I think the point is if the power pure will work consistently and is less expensive and lasts longer than the power one some people will find better value in that.
It may be a better choice for street strip bikes who dont need a tire with the grip to run 7's if there bike only does high 8's anyways. The question im waiting for is will the tire hook consistently on tracks that arent prepped so well im sure after more people run it we will have the answer to that.......

that's the boat i'm in. i'm basically looking for a lightweight tire that performs as good as or better than the Shinko Usoft for not too much more money. the Shinko Usoft has worked great for me, but i just wanted a lighter tire.
