The road 5 is an amazing motorcycle tire that gives the rider a good feedback. I own a 2018 CBR1000RR and this is the second set of Michelin that I have put on my bike. By the way I have put over 16,800 miles on my CBR1000RR and these tires have done a better job than the Pirelli Angel.

Best overall motorcycle tire there is.

Run these on my zx10r and my gsxr 1100. I've tried a good number of tires in the last 30 years and for the last 3 almost 4 I swear by these. Great for the horrible roads and weather of alaska

Would recommend to any sportbike rider

Hi Nolan. Thanks for your feedback on MICHELIN Road 5 tires. To be clear, the carcass of the tire is the primary factor that delivers handling characteristics based on the weight of a motorcycle. We offer MICHELIN Road 5 tires in a standard version, which offers superb handling for a wide range of sport, sport touring and roadster type bikes, and a GT version with an extra bias belt ply for heavier sport touring motorcycles. The tread compound directly affects grip and longevity. A softer compound would offer more grip but wear out much faster. Thanks again for choosing Michelin! We wish you long and safe rides.

After 15,000 miles there was still tread but the rubber was done. Maybe the tire could stand to be a bit softer for our lighter bikes likes the cb500f.

Road 5s ran 15000 miles on cb500f
