Michlein Comander II tires

Don't think I can get them before the Lonestar Rally. But I'm gonna order some Michlein tires for my bike. Got several friends that are sold on them.
The Indy shops I deal with are super busy. So me getting them ordered them to come in and get them on before thursday is gonna be impossible.
And its gonna be 60% chance of rain Thursday. So I'm screwed there.

Maybe you can go on another day, like Friday or Saturday? I'd go with the old tires - they can't be that bad, can they?

front one is making a noise when i lay on the curves.
back one is about to git slick in the center.

I don't have tires on my bike to see How many miles I can get off a set.
Don't have a bike I can say I got 50 mpg.
I run the heck out of my bike. Blast off at starts. Speedshift getting in and out of traffic.
I got 13,000 out of my 1st set when I was taking it easy on the bike on the rear.
But it was flat in the center and no thread.
Tires weren't made to run that long safely.
When 70% of the tire is gone, git rid of it.
Tires are one of the most important things on a bike or vehicles.

Yup...Watch my tire pressure like a hawk...Check it before every ride...Your life depends on your tires...There is no excuse...

Flat across the center is a lot of interstate riding.
My manual calls for. 40 in the rear
Everytime I check it, it's on the dot.
Didn't just start riding .

OK. Here we go.

Buddy down the street put em on his 2011 Road Glide before he got transferred as a GS-13 to Washington. He had over 5000 miles on them with little wear show.

Service manager at a HD dealer in West Texas has the Michelin Commanders II on his bike.

Here is where I ordered the tires from.
They don't list it online but they do have them on the 180-65B -16

They only show 180-65-16

The B rating is 6.00 more.

The front is a 130-80B-17 it does have the B rating.
B is for a little heavier compound in the tire.
Think the B is also for riding 2 up.

Got a buddy who has them on his FXR to look the weight ratings up.
They carry the same weight rating as the factory tires.

They got a pretty good price on them.
