## Description

The MICHELIN Road 5 tire offers superior wet weather grip versus leading competitors due to patented MICHELIN XST Evo siping and our latest 2CT and 2CT+ tread compounds. Even after 3,500 miles the MICHELIN Road 5 tire stop as well in wet conditions as a new MICHELIN Road 4 tire. Improved stability is provided by the use of MICHELIN ACT+ casing technology which reinforces the shoulder areas while leaving the crown area compliant for a more comfortable ride. Based on internal wet lap times comparing MICHELIN Road 5 tires with METZELER Roadtec 01 tires, DUNLOP ROADSMART III tires, CONTINENTAL ContiRoadAttack 3 tires, PIRELLI Angel GT tires, BRIDGESTONE T30 EVO tires, and MICHELIN Pilot Road 4 tires in dimensions 120/70 ZR17 (front) and 180/55/ZR17 (rear) on a 2013 Suzuki Bandit 1250, conducted in Ladoux, France. Actual results may vary.

Review: Excellent general use tire - This is my first time not running a "street slick" like a SuperCorsa SP or similar (on superbikes) and I have been VERY impressed with these tires on a V2 Ducati Monster 900S. Good dry grip and excellent wet traction. They may not be sufficient for high HP bikes or very fast street riding but they work perfectly for aggressive cornering on a low HP bike like the Monster in the wet or dry.
Review: Great tire - This tire came on my 2024 mt07. Put 9,987 miles on it to date. Im in utah so have only about 5 months or riding time. Still could put another couple hundred miles on it im sure. But summer just hit and slapped on a new one. Can't beat it. I ride pretty hard, canyon mountain riding only. Didn't let me down. 1/2 chicken strips, they let ya lay in over and hold.
