Have to say that I'm not that impressed with them so far.
I had the Pirelli's dialed in and running the same pressures, I have less feel with the Michellins. I'm riding fast because I know they are new tires but I dont have the feel I had with the Pirelli's. I keep adding rebound trying to get more feel from these terds and not working so far. I tried pushing the front end and trail braking to see if there is feel but not as much. I thought for a second that I was getting on the gas too soon so the front was unloaded but doesn't appear to be that way.

I'll get the photos, sorry been lazy.

First ride with them I noticed the front had more feel so I checked the pressures when I got home and they were 34PSI. So maybe the Michellins just want to run lower pressures than the pirelli?
As far as warm up it was 78 degrees so it didn't take them long and I gas it on the straights and hard brake a lights to get them moving and heated.
 
yeah, i hear what your saying. coming off the mich pilot p 2ct they feel similair, only noticed slower warm up. but as for feel i am comfy with the mich so maybe your more keyed into the pirelli.
 
Just got mine mounted yesterday. Only about 20 miles on them so no report. Dealer mounted so I didn't get any weights. Bike does feel much better but of course my last tires had squared off pretty badly. Actually it feels better than I ever remember she falls into turns so quickly now!
 
I gave 232.98, I have found them cheaper online but local shops wasn't willing to change tires unless ( tires purchased from them, or want lots $ for the job, or won't deal with Ducs/SSSA). I'm now trying to talk a buddy into going in with me on a No-Mar tire changer.
