    • Bets motorcycle tires for the money I have ever bought.
Size: 120/70ZR-17 (58W)
This is the best set of motorcycle tires have ever owned. For bot my bikes I have switched to the Michelin Road series and while they are pricey, the grip, longevity, and performance has been top notch. In wet weather, as well dry, as road performance has been outstanding,. Road stability at any speed is exceptional. Have not used in snow but even in cold the grip holds until the visible end of the tire's life. ... show more

What more can be said about the Road 6, it's good in the rain, it's extraordinary on dry roads and it wears like iron.

I put a set of these on for the ‘24 season. I believe I last tired a sport touring tire in the late 2000s and was not too impressed due to both wet and cold grip compared to the pilots of the early 2000s until this the ‘24 season. This is an amazing tire. Grip in all conditions from hot dry to heavy rain and even a dusting of snow more than once. I’m not a track guy but I have never sniffed these tires grip level as far as I can tell. At just over 8000 miles they are beginning to flat spot in the center but I suspect I’ll get another 3000 out of them. I’d say these tires cover both the sport and the touring. I should add my Multistrada is not a light bike (and neither am I if I’m being honest). Way more miles than I expected if this proves true. ... show more

    • Best Motorcycle Tires for Bigger Bikes (Kawasaki Concours)
Size: 120/70ZR-17 (58W)
I have been using the Michelin Motorcycle Tires for 8 years now. They keep coming up with newer versions that are always better. I purchased the Front and Rear tires. Michelin Road 6 GT Rear Tire, black, 190/50ZR17 (73W), and Michelin Road 6 GT Front Tire, black, 120/70ZR17 (58W) for my 2013 Kawasaki Concours. I have been consistently getting just over 11,000 miles on the GT tires. When I change out my tires they are not bald or quite to the wear bars, so I would guess that there is another 2000 miles there. I just prefer fresh tires and never will ride on wore out tires. I have been in some horrible rain, hail, and even snow. These tires grip very well. In the dry on the twisty's, I have scrapped my pegs many times (accidently which scares the crap out of me) and NEVER have lost traction. In the heavy rains the traction is excellent also, and there is no heavy spray on my riding buddies. I have swapped over to a few other tire manufactures and have always been disapainted when compairing them to the Michelin Tires. GET MICHELIN and Ride in Comfort, Quietness, and Safety. ... show more
