This tire improves performance for a range of riders across disciplines.

The MICHELIN Road 6 tire brings enthusiasts multiple new features designed to improve wet grip, longevity and appearance on a range of motorcycles. 

The new tire, available now, is designed to improve performance for roadster, trail, sport and GT motorcycles and is available in the standard MICHELIN Road 6 tire range as well as the MICHELIN Road 6 GT tire range for larger, heavier touring motorcycles. 

Technologies from Michelin’s research centers around the world, coupled with the class-leading technology of the tire’s predecessor, the MICHELIN Road 5 tire, leverage two decades of innovation to bring riders the following benefits: 

The new tire range comprises six front and eight rear sizes, while the GT tire range is available in one front and three rear sizes. This complete range provides fitments for everything from small roadsters, such as the KTM 390, through trail bikes and up to GT machines, such as the BMW K1600 GT/GTL.
