In hindsight I should add that I may have had a bit extra weight bias on the draw bar than usual and this could have been partially to blame for the handling issues I had on the rougher roads.I wish I could say the same for the Michelin Commander II 140/75/16 front tyre It is a fantastic handling tyre and allows me to attack the twisty stuff even harder than I did before but it is going to be lucky to see 6,000km and unfortunately not a very good tyre to have on the front while towing a trailer, a wider footprint 150 tyre is better suited on some of the rougher country roads but was fine on the smoother Hume Hwy
Even thou it is not wearing as well as I would like I have to say it is with out doubt the best front tyre I have had on the Rocket and would happily put another on but am going to first try a Dunlop Elite 3 next
