I recommend this tire

Amazing do it all Tyre

I have ridden several generations of this tire from the Macadam (FJ1200) to the current Road 6 and Road 6 GT. I have tried Continentals, Dunlops, Metzeler but always come back to the Michelins. The 6 is by far the best one yet. I REALLY loved the Road 5 and went through about 8 sets on my ZX14 and R1. It was stable, predicable and still let me go into the corners without issue. 2up or solo SPORT touring the tire never let me down. The Road 6 is even better. I'm on my 4th set on my Bandit 1250.

Great for the twisties even when wet.

I do a lot of hair raising steep twisties on wet mountain roads with these Road 6 tires. No slippage or break in the traction patch due to water, or even traction control warnings on my rear tire. While they are soft enough really to grab the asphalt on a lean, they are very durable (unavoidable sharp stones and scree haven't marred them). They ride really nice and are very comfortable when properly inflated. These are my favorite everyday tires.

2024 Ninja 650 stock tires were not cutting it. The change in grip (in dry & especially wet conditions) is remarkable.
