Tyre size:
What tyre size do you require?
The exact size of a tyre can be found on its sidewall.
The following chart shows you how to read a tyre size.
1. Overall tire width in mm
2. Ratio of tire height to tire width in%
3. Tire design: ''R'' = radial tires (widely used), ''D'' or ''-'' = diagonal tires (rare)
4. Required rim diameter for this tire in inches
5. Key figure for tire load capacity
6. Key figure for the permissible maximum speed (speed index)
7. Motorcycle tire identification, tires only approved for motorcycles
8. DOT labeling
9. Date of manufacture of the tire (week of production / year of production)
 
/
SPEED INDEX:
The speed index indicates the maximum speed intended for the tyre. Up to this value, the manufacturer guarantees optimum operation with the appropriate tyre pressure. The maximum speed allowed for this vehicle is given in the vehicle owner's manual; this information can be used to select the appropriate speed index for the tyre. The speed index is the last mark on the sidewall of the tyre.

Great feedback, responsive turning, easy to change direction Not had tyres long enough to rate wear or wet.
18.11.2024fromA Nonny
I've been riding 39 years, Still lovin it & still pulling the trigger. If a K1600 bangs past you It's probably me and wife. The tyres have been great over almost 3000km this summer in UK & ireland (a lot of 2-up with luggage) with no sign of flatfacing yet. We will see how long they last .The best we've had so far on our BMW tourer. "pricey but nicey"
24.09.2024fromMark Foley
Absolutely fantastic. Squared off at 6000kms but loads of tread left. Total confidence in the wet and the dry.
11.07.2023fromColin
These tyres handle anything, I've even done a track day with them knee down no problem and showing very little ware.

I have been using Michelin roads since road 2. Simply the best wet weather and all round grip everywhere tire. The only, not really a problem, was they changed the shape/smile of the front trye on road 4's and later I was riding a Bell Ulysses and found my new 4 just sat "higher" and the chicken strip on the front went from almost nothing to half an inch and the Buell just did not turn into a corner like it should do so swapped the 120/70 for a 120/60 and the handling came back and the chicken strip disappeared. Bought the 120/60 version with the road 5 & 6 for the same reason My bikes were 1988 & 1989 Vfr750 and 2003 NT650v Deauville. My riding style is fast into corners so front end grip/control is very important for me. My old saying is "Straight lines are for wimps that can't handle corners" 😎
01.10.2023fromAllan
Best tyre I've ever had on any bike I've owned for fast road riding . Will buy again and again...amazing!
10.09.2022fromPaul
I love these tyres... Last five tyres have been this brand. Used 364 days a year, Christmas Day off. Highly highly recommended

07.02.2025fromDavid Bennett
I fitted these tyres after a Scotland trip with the existing trail type tyres, a couple of front end twitches and countless times the traction control kicked in even just on damp roads. With these tyres fitted a mix of high speed touring across France and Swiss alpine passes, prior to which some weekend riding with mates on sports bikes. Adjusted the fork preload and the tyres performed impeccably, even the day we had monsoon like rain. I had already sorted the pressures to my liking which were 36 front and 38 rear, with or without full luggage. The bike has limited adjustment on the suspension but only required a few clicks on the rear between fully loaded and rider only. I’ve always ridden sports bikes until recently but my worries about grip handling the tight switchbacks on such a heavy bike were very quickly dispelled, No real signs of wear yet I’ll have to see how they do for longevity, but no hesitation at buying these tyres again. I have Avon sport tyres on my Honda VTR SP1 and these tyres give the same feedback and a very comfortable ride. Front 110/80R19. Rear 150/70ZR17

Best tire by miles in the wet, confidence inspiring, good feedback, and even if it does let go, it does it progressively and smoothly. Doesn't deal with ice and/or snow as good as they look they would, but they will get you through it, just. better than others still. In the dry, it's quite possibly the worst. Handlebars vibrate quite a bit at speeds(only in dry), at 90+mph speeds all confidence is lost, somehow it provides less feedback in the dry as well. I personally use these tires from Oct to April, then swap it to normal tires, this way I have grip all year round.
