Review: Road 6 have great grip! - I just went through a Michelin Road 6 and got a little over 8,000 miles. I thought I would get more, but I have to say these are great tires, a lot of grip. I decided to go with the GT’s hoping to get a few more miles, same grip. Very happy with the Road 6.
Review: Best Motorcycle Tires for Bigger Bikes (Kawasaki Concours) - 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.
