Why is this the right tire for me?

 

Increased Wet Grip!1

15% more grip than the MICHELIN® Road 5 tire in wet conditions thanks to 100% MICHELIN® Silica Technology tread compounds and a new tread pattern featuring MICHELIN® Water Evergrip Technology™.

Increased Cornering Stability

MICHELIN® 2CT+ Technology™, which has been standard on the rear tire, is now applied to the front tire for better rigidity at lean, and more stability when cornering, especially under strong acceleration or heavy braking, compared to the previous generation.

I've currently got 5300 miles on these Road 6's & they are a big difference over the road 5's big time..BIG TIME confidence in the rain & the twisties! I've got a good amount of tread life left but my riding season is over here in northern Illinois. I'll wind up ordering a new set over the winter (as I always do) & have them put on in the spring since I don't wanna change out tires while on the road come summer 2024 once I hit the road. This is gotta be my 5th or 6th Michelin tire on this bike & they've all been great except for maybe mileage but these Road 6's have conquered that!! The Honda ST1300 is known to be the heaviest Sport/Touring bike on the road so I take that into consideration on mileage in the past.

Best Tire on my Honda ST1300

I went on a 2,000 mile road trip around Colorado and Utah with 3 friends - all of us in road 6s. We all thought the 6s were an excellent tire in the dry. But where this tire really shines is in the wet. In a steady rain, over multiple mountain passes with temps from the 40s to the 70s - these tires were predictable, grippy and confidence inspiring. If these tires last as long as claimed, I would have found a new favorite.

Great tires - particularly in the wet

I replaced the OEM Continentals on my 2021 R 1250 GS. The rear is at the wear bars with

Great tire, but still wears quickly
