Alan Christian Nacogdoches,  TX The way to go. I had this tire installed on my Suzuki Intruder VS1400GLP for a few months now, and they have been amazing. Before, I had a new Metzeler tire on the bike, and if the roads were wet or if I had to press on the rear brake a little more than usual, the tire would squeal and lose traction. I had a few close encounters because of this. After getting a huge bolt through the Metzeler, I bought the Michelin Commander and have had no problems. The tire grips the road better than any other tire that I have experienced on a bike. There have been instances where I've been caught in the rain or had to hit the rear brake hard, but the tire never lost traction. Highly recommend!

Dan Antioch,  CA Michelin Commander Cruiser Rear Tire Excellent tire. Much more cost effective than Metzeler ME880. I ran the ME880 for six years. I ride more than 20,000 miles per year. This is my second Michelin. I got 18,500 miles out of the first one and it behaved the same from start to finish.

Joe Mokena,  IL Michelin - Commander Cruiser Rear Tire I just rode from Daytona to Naples Florida and the bike rides better than it ever did with the factory Dunlop and the Metzler I had on it. Still too early to see what kind of tread life it gets. So far a great tire.

Charlie Raleigh,  NC Michelin Commander Love the tire better than the Metzlers it replaced. These have a more controlled, solid feel. I have already put 3k miles on it and it looks like new. I will replace the other soon and buy the Michelins again. I got 8k from the Metz on the rear of my Roadking and plan on getting that or more with these.

Keith Indianapolis,  IN Simply The Best! I have had my Michelin Commanders for about a month now and the difference in the ride vs. Dunlop’s is unbelievable! The jury is still out on the longevity of these Commanders but for the value you get from the Motorcycle Superstore in addition to the smooth ride you get from these tires they are worth every penny and with that said quite frankly I don't care how long they last. I'll just invest in some new ones! I'm hooked.

Todd B. Waldorf,  MD Decent mileage, great handling wet and dry I'm on my second rear tire and my second front commander as well and these tires perform excellently! Great balance of softer, sticky rubber for good grip in wet and dry, with decent mileage. I get about 15K on the fronts and 9K on the rears and I ride my '02 FXSTSI Springer really hard. These tires grip and hold up well. I ride loaded up with big saddlebags and a tall T-bag. I think the softer casing on these tires makes them perform great and don't follow road seems like some other tires. I'm hooked on these!

Chuck Orlando,  FL I Like It This is the OEM on my bike and having strayed once I'll never do it again. It's a solid product. I get about 10,000 interstate miles out of this tire before it starts to feel spongey.
