Good, confidence inspiring
Excellent tire for grip on dry and wet road. Ok to balance and install. First one got a puncture at just 2k miles. Hard to say on longevity but i immediately replaced with same rear because i liked it. Had very little visible wear. On 2020 Yamaha Tracer 900GT

Excellent Longevity and Performance
The Michelin Road 6 front tire has been outstanding. After more than a year of use, it still looks and performs like new. Grip, stability, and overall confidence on the road have remained consistent throughout its lifespan. Very impressed with the durability and quality.

Absolutely Yes.
These tires are fantastic. I put them on my Ninja650 and found they're perfect in rain and sun. They're confidence inspiring, and they grips perfectly in the corners. I then proceed to get this brand and model tire for my cbr600rr as well to the same assessment. I installed them in my living room, with hand tools only. They have been going for about 4k miles on the cbr and 2k ok the ninja. Its beyond worth every penny.

Excellent tires!
Best tires I've ever had on my bike. I get between 9k and 11k miles on a set depending on riding conditions and how I'm using the bike at the time. Phenomenal traction in the rain. I'll pass cars in rainstorms and I'm sure they think I'm crazy, but the bike is solid. Smooth up to 155mph and I wish my track had a longer straight section to try above that speed.

The best
Had 10k on my last rear, and never broke traction once. A great tire.

Great tires
Great tires worth the money I had purchased these after reading some reviews that they had some longevity and I can confirm after riding on them they do last better than other tires Iโve had on my 2016 Yamaha xsr 900

Great Tires!
I've installed fronts and rears on both of my bikes in the last year and they are great tires. We'll see how many miles I get form them eventually.

EXCELLENT mileage
I replaced my stock tire (Dunlop Road Sport 2 I think) with this. The Dunlop was done after 4300 miles. My friend has the same bike with these tires on, and at nearly 10k miles they still have life left. I'm at 3700 miles now and there is clearly plenty more life left in them compared to the stock tire. On top of this the rain grip is really impressive, and the handling was improved in how eager the bike is to turn now! Update after a little under 7000 miles: the rear tire is now down to wear bars so I'll be replacing it soon. Front is probably at about half life, as somewhat expected. They have performed fantastically. I am most shocked by the grip in rain and near freezing temperatures: they genuinely don't seem to be any less grippy than they were in summer!

Awesome tire
My bime had a skinny 160/60 factory and the 180/55 fills the space in the back much better. Rides great and the grip is phenominal. Will be buying another when this one becomes white smoke

Both tires arrive a week apart!
4.5 of 5 stars: Very happy with the tires, the price I paid for and the ability to pay in 3 equal payments. I was surprised to receive only one tire a few days later, while the rear tire arrived about a week and a half later. The tires were made 0523, I purchased them in June 2023. That's "fresh rubber"
