Going to need a new set of skins.
Any thoughts on these...
Michelin Commander II

 

I just ordered one to try out on the rear. I'm running vee on the front so don't need both.

 

Just got mine in ..I have been running the first commanders and been getting 15,000 on the rear .I'm hoping for that or more out of the II's.

 

15,000 miles on a rear tire? I barely got 6k on the Michelin Commander I had on the rear. At least with a 402 I can get 7500 on the rear hide.

 

yep .i had two sets so far .i got 15000 on both sets.i have a 01 fxdl .a friend of mine has a screamin eagle ultra and didnt get very good mileage on his commander.he seems to like the continental though.

 

Feels like a new bike, just got back from a 300 mi trip and this bike feels nimble, even 2 up... Never will I go back to Dunlops...

 

.I just put one on my bike front and it feels like a solid tire. Haven't broke it in yet. I ordered a rear also from motorcycle superstore

 

Talked to the guy in Lafayette at the display this weekend. Thinking about switching over and see how they work. Been running Dunlop's, but needing a new set again, and was impressed with them at the show....

 

I too just had a set of Comm II's put on - Been running Metzlers - From what I have read, these had pretty good reviews - Will be breaking them in soon - Headin' off to NM and see all the country - Hope these live up to the hype -

 

Tried American Elites and Metzler ME880's on the Ultra.. Prefer the Am Elites Better Mileage and Grip just as well .. For the FXR4 Love the Metz .. But after hear more would consider the Commanders ..
