When you take it out for a ride how do you get home without turning? Kid picks you up with a trailer??

Always had excellent results with Michelin tires. I've had Roads and Powers. Always got 5-7000 miles out of them, depending on the bike.  More so than that..Michelins are one of the very few tires I've tried that will go until they're bald without chopping the front tire. Never liked Dunlop's, and have had mixed results with Bridgestones. 

Contrary to Carlos, Avons we're the absolute worst tire I ever purchased. Azaros I believe. I put them on my 99 XX. I actually had them dismounted after 500 miles or so. They made the bike actually wobble at slow speeds. I'm talking straight line, 30 mph. Fucking horrible.

Not sure what the riders age has to do with tyres but whatever.

 

When I got my xx she had metzelers fitted, after a couple of hundred miles on those ditch finders I was in no doubt that a change was needed.  Been on Michelin road 5's ever since and am happy with those, decent grip in all weathers and seem to wear at a reasonable rate.

If anyone is looking for Michelins, this would be a good time to buy.

 

Up to $150 back on combined purchases of new MICHELIN® Motorcycle tires,
