MICHELIN Commander II Rear Tire 130/90B-16 (73H)

Was told I needed a police report to say both tires didn’t come and here’s my review

Best tire for my bike. Will buy again

Have used commander Michelin tires on my Harley for years I get better life then other brands and they hold the road well

I have put around 3,000 miles on my 2003 Harley Electra Glide since installing this tire and it has been working great. It was more affordable than the Dunlop. My Dunlop that was on the bike when I purchased it was worn out so I can't tell you which one is better as far as traction but this one seems to be working well and does not show excessive wear with 3,000 miles. Price per mile of wear it appears this one beats the Dunlop. Only time will tell. It did slide when riding in the rain coming down a hill in Omaha one time but I think no matter what tire I would have had on there it would have slide due to the smoothly worn road. I have had good luck with all of the Michelin tires that I've purchased.

This is my second Commander II tire.They wear evenlyThey run quietThe hand mount easily compared to some other brandsThey seal very well on the wheel. Rarely have to add air.Those are the plusesThe Negatives..They don't get any more mileage than any other tire I have run.Michelin makes big mileage claims which I did not see.Pretty much the same 10,000 mi I have got out of every other brand over the past 19 years and 110,000 mi on this 2001 FLH.Michelin tech support is lame.I called to ask why the side wall wasn't marked for mounting in regard to valve stem position.Ugh..1st tire I have mounted in the past 30 years or more without a mark.The 1st Tech had no clue what I was asking about.2nd tech says the industry is getting away from that. No explanation why.Not true. Dunlop, Continental, Pirelli, Avon and others mark their tires. Michelin is marking their front tires..Still a good tire and will purchase again.

Definitely an upgrade from the original Dunlops that came with my Harley and for about the same price.These tires are more 'sticky' than my old Dunlop tires so I feel more confident in the turns. They are also a bit more round which makes easing in and out of turns easier to do.I have an antique Harley and was worried about keeping the bike 'original' but honestly these look about the same as the OEM Dunlops I was riding on before and I really think these are a safer tire. Harley now uses Michelin on their new bikes and for good reason. These are just a better product and people will know you've done your research and made an informed choice when you upgrade to these tires.

This is my very first review of anything i've purchased on here. I felt these tires deserved one. This is the second set that i've installed on my 2007 Harley FLHTCU, and i couldn't be happier. I wanted to wait until i rode these to the wear limit before reviewing.They are the absolute best handling tires i've every owned, and prior to these i've used the OEM Dunlops exclusively. Never got more than 9000 miles on rear and 20,000 on the front.The Michelin still has tread left on them at 15000 miles on the rear, and 25000 miles on the front. The only reason i'm changing them now is that i've got a 2000 mile trip planned and didn't want to trust 2 year old tires for it.I've got absolutely no complaints on the Michelin tires. The handle and feel great, and they wear like iron.. Highly recommend. And the plus side, is you can get them on Amazon cheaper than the OEM tires.

2001 Harley Davidson FXDL Dyna Low RiderI HATED how the stock Dunlops handled. I average around 6,000 miles a season. The Dunlops felt like every little crease and groove in the road was grabbing my handlebars away from me. I thought there was something seriously wrong with my bike and even swapped bikes with my husband a few times to see if he thought there was something wrong.The difference with these tires is NIGHT and DAY, and my bike is darn near perfect now! I ride over heavily grooved concrete with these and hardly even notice. Quick, easy, responsive swerving and turning, super smooth ride.Oh, and they arrived super-quick, too.7/24/17 update: I purchased these early summer 2013 and put on around 25,000 miles before replacing the rear tire this spring. The front one still has plenty of miles left in it!
