I have Metzeler 888 Marathons on my 05 Electra Glide and love them. Never have had Michelin’s on my bike. But they look nice from the pictures and a few reviews that I have read they seem like a good choice.
Lots of good choices out there.
FWIW, I`ve been running Metzeler`s for decades
OP if $522 OTD is balanced and mounted on the bike, then that's a buy in my book. I just paid $601 for that with the winter discount at my local dealer. If that price is just for the tires then you can do better.
I wore out my stock Dunlops in less than 8,000. I replaced them with the CII's and got double the mileage. For me the timing on the release of the CIII's was just about perfect so I pulled the trigger.
As for previously mentioned tire failure, that's very scary but all tires are going to have a certain failure rate and for me I trust the Michelins over the Dunlops. Really don't have any experience with other brands except Pirellis in my old flat tracking days, but that's going way back ha ha.
Me and little bro tearing it up!

The price I was quoted is OTD, balanced and mounted on the bike for the C III's. I ride the bike in, they install new tires, I ride away. I have spent some time looking to see if there is a better deal out there, and I haven't found one. I'm pretty sure I'll go this route when it's time.
