The Michelin Commander II Cruiser tire will more than likely be my next front tire after doing comparing on the tire calculator. I've had Michelin on my sport bike I once had and loved those tires. With the Bridgestone Exedra Max as the rear tire.

What you guys think?

Yeah Yeah I have actually seen the tyre in the flesh I want to see one on a bike to see how much Gap there is under the guard, in other words on the BIKE. Thanks anyway Bull

please note the link had the incorrect size in it. It is a 140/75/17 not a 145/75/17 so run the 140 size thru it before you decide


edit,- there doesnt appear to be that much difference but other Question does anyone know the load rating as I couldn't find it... probally going blind

I'd go with an Exedra Max on the rear. Just be aware that the Bridgestone is a bigger tyre than OEM ie higher profile, so it raises the rear a little. The Commander will drop the front a little so there will be a combined effect on handling. Not a bad thing necessarily, just be aware.

according to the calulater in the link it will drop the front 15mm (tad over 1/2 inch) that with the extra 20 mm in my rear shocks and extra bit from the excerdra it will carve the curves
