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™.

Excellent !

Reviewed by Bubba - May 26, 2023 for a purchase of December 15, 2022

These tires go very well with my R1250GS. Complements the handling very well. Over 6000 miles on rear and likely 2-4000 left. Will buy them again.

This is truly and awesome tire. I've pushed these tire probably more then they should be. I did notice in a hard down hill left hander the rear tire chatting over tar snakes but with little or no effect with control or no step out. I well continue to run these tires based on the proven performance

Great tire for BMW 1250GSA

Reviewed by ColoradoAdventure - May 18, 2023 for a purchase of October 1, 2022

I have tried the Road/Trail 5 tires and Anakee adventure tires for th BMW 1250GSA. I wanted to try to get 12,000 miles out of the Road 6 tires to make it between service intervals. I took two long cross country road trips 98% pavement and the tires survived 11,000 miles but I think it will be very difficult to get 12,000 out of this tire. My riding habits are moderate. I dont baby the tire but I was not ripping it and abusing the bike or the tire during these trips. They have great cornering, ride smooth and handle non technical dirt just fine. I am going to get another pair but I am torn between this and the anakee adventure. My adventure riding involves thousands of miles of pavement between dirt roads and I am not sure which tire suits me but both are just great all around tires. The ROAD 6 is a great tire.
