Bobby Sladek St. Louis,  MO Dragon Tail wet or dry I put both tires on at the same time and am will be buying a second set when these wear out. I got sold on these when me and two of my buddies rode Deal's Gap on wet pavement. I was on a GL1500 and never slipped. I wish I could put a pic on here of just how far I pushed these tires. As far as tread life..........just can't get enough miles out of a tire.

Dale Stewart Brighton,  IL Michelin-Pilot GT Rear Tire This is my third set of the Michelin Pilot GT tires and I won't run anything else. I average about 15,000 miles a year on my 1988 GL1500 and the last set of tires lasted almost 19,000 miles. They handle so well on dry roads it is like riding a sport bike, and in the rain there seems to be no traction loss and no hydro-planing. Great tires at a very affordable price.

George LITH,  IL Michelin - Pilot GT Rear Tire Having only put 500 miles on the tire, it is hard to rate Tread Life. However, so far I am very pleased with this tire. I installed it on a 2006 Kawasaki Concours and it is more stable on the highway than the original OEM tire.

KMW-Steve Huntington Beach,  CA Don't Leave Home Without Them AWESOME tires. Had Avons on my 03 Concours when I bought it in 05. According to the previous owner the Avons only had 7K miles and were getting close to replacement. I am a frugal SOB and didn't want to spend $500 a year replacing my rear tire. I ride about 12-15K a year. Read reviews on the Pilot GT mounted on the Connie and thought I would give them a try. I can't be happier. I ride the Connie like she is a Ninja, GSXR, CBRR....my riding buddies may pull away in the straights but I always catch them in the turns. I rated the tires a 3 for wet traction because living in So. Cal you don't get to ride in the rain that often. I can say that they do well in the snow!!! Discovered that on a late Spring road trip to Utah. Anyway, great tire, good customer service, will always put Pilot GTs on my Connie.

Doug Harral Weston,  OR Michelin Pilot GT Rear Tire I've only put around 1500 miles on the tire so far in 4 rides, but it handles awesome on my Concours. I can carve through the twisties with ease, and I get great traction on dry or wet highways.

Ken Corinth,  MS Worth the wait I love these tires. They have completely changed the character of my Goldwing. The feel is amazing compared to the E-3's. Did I mention I love these tires?.

Harvey Nashville,  TN Best Yet Gives the best feel yet on my 1500 GW, am going to get the front one now. Previously I have had the Dunlop & Avon on this ride, this Michelin has a better feel under all conditions, especially cornering (nice roll feel, no suprises). So far I only have 3,000 miles on this tire, however it appears to be going to last longer than either of the other brands I have tried - even if the life is only equal to the others the ride & price make it worthy of using.
