Unmatched Performance and Grip: Michelin Motorbike Tyres Take Your Ride to the Next Level!
I recently fitted Michelin motorbike tyres to my bike, and I am thoroughly impressed! The grip and handling are exceptional, offering confidence in both dry and wet conditions. Whether I’m cornering at high speeds or navigating tight turns, the tyres provide excellent stability and traction. The ride feels smoother, and I can definitely notice an improvement in overall performance. The longevity is also great, and I’ve noticed a significant reduction in wear compared to previous brands. Michelin has truly delivered a top-tier product for motorcyclists. Highly recommended for anyone looking to upgrade their ride!

Road 5 - great tire for muddy roads!
I had the Road 5's on my 2002 R1150RS that I recently sold. I road that bike through PA in the rain on roads where there was a lot of fracking for oil going on. The bike and I got covered in gray slime but the Road 5's held the road and I never felt unsafe riding!

Absolutely amazing tires!
These are good for everything, but especially amazing in the rain. I have them on my 2017 FZ10 which recently transferred from my touring/commuting bike into track/fun rides only, and I'm still happy with the Road 5's until they wear down. We had a lot of rainy track days this summer and I got a lot of compliments on how comfortable I'm riding in the rain, all thanks to having 100% confidence in these tires.

decent, edges too hard, too long to heat up
i was not impressed with the so called "softer/grippier" edges on the road 5 and 6.. they are still too hard and take to long to heat up.... road 7 needs road 5/6 center, with a pilot power 2ct edge!!

Best overall motorcycle tire there is.
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.
