Michelin Power Shift – Sportsbike-inspired performance for maxi-scooters
The Michelin Power Shift is a premium maxi-scooter tyre developed for riders who want sportsbike-like handling without sacrificing everyday practicality. Replacing the Pilot Power 3 SC and Pilot Road 4 SC in key sizes, the Power Shift combines Michelin’s latest compound technology with a design tailored specifically to the demands of modern high-performance scooters.
Using Michelin’s proven 2CT dual-compound technology on the front tyre and 2CT+ construction on the rear, the Power Shift delivers excellent cornering grip while maintaining strong mileage and stability. A 100% silica compound further enhances wet-weather performance, making it a capable year-round option for riders who commute, tour or simply enjoy making progress on their scooter.
Designed for the latest generation of maxi-scooters, the Power Shift is an ideal fit for machines such as the Yamaha TMAX 560, Honda Forza 750 and Honda X-ADV 750. It offers the confidence of a premium sports-touring motorcycle tyre combined with the agility and practicality expected from a scooter-specific fitment.
The 120/70 R17 front size is also suitable for the Yamaha Niken and can be paired with a Michelin Road 6 rear, making it an interesting option for Niken owners looking for a matching Michelin setup.

- 100% silica compound for excellent wet-weather grip
