Tracy, I had the Michelin Commander II on my old bike. Really liked them and still lots of tread when I traded it in.

I have a serious issue when it comes to long straight stretches Stan.


It's like I just can't help myself. I'll look down at the speedo and it's just climbing as if the bike has a mind of it's own and says "Look at all that open F'n road! Faster! Faster!"


I still haven't found the top end on Ol' Blue since I put that Baker DD6 on her. 110 and still climbing on one occasion when I had to get off of it..

Haven't even tried to find the top end on the new one. 160km/hr (100mph) is as hard as I have pushed it. That was 2 up!
