Commander
Best tyres yet on my H-D, great Lin the wet or dry, transformed my bike
Simply the best
Simply the best tyre I have ever ridden on. The handling improved dramatically. The tyres are rock dolid in the wet, Ive never has so much confidence in a tyre in wet conditions. I will never use another branded tyre.
Number 1 tyres
These are the best tyres I have used, great in rain and great all round tyre
Online it says Commander IIIs a recommended tire for HD cruiser V Twins
Online it says the Commander IIIs are recommended for HD cruiser V Twins, until I had an issue, then I was told it wasn't. Easy search to see I'm right. I had to replace the one I had on the front as I could have died when I had to brake hard and got the death wobble. I put in a complaint to Michelin and was told the dealerships were aware of this and that it was not recommended for cruisers 2013 and newer so the warranty was void. Lifelong customer lost by Michelin by passing the buck. This isn't our first rodeo people. All I asked for was accountability.
Best tires ever!!
Just installed the third set on my third bike. They made my cruisers handle like sport bikes. Wet/ dry traction is excellent. Braking can be done with total confidence; my ABS has yet to activate with these tires mounted. Looks like I’m going to get close to 25k miles out of my original set on a 900lb bagger!! I’ll be hard pressed to ever run a different tire.

Command the Road
I purchased this Tire on 11/2023 and as soon as I rode away from the dealer/installer I noticed a much better ride than the oem tires. I listened to a friend and glad I did (he also told me expect to get many good miles out ofthem.

Commander 3 tyres
I purchased these tyres for my Harley Davidson street bob not only did they look great but they also performed well in the dry conditions and wet conditions. Now I have got myself a new Road King when I need new tyres they will be commander’s also
My bike
As a former daily commuter I found I need a tyre to handle all weather conditions, when on other brands I found on take off I would break traction and in cornering very unstable, from the first day having these tyres on I found the stability to be superb and the grip levels far more superior than what I had previously experienced. As the tyres are still reasonably fresh (5000klms) I feel confident in all weather conditions and would recommend these to anyone
No happy!
Worst tyres I have used in my 50 years of motorcycling, Vibrations from front tyre! Many hours spent checking bearings etc… Poor cornering stability, with wobble from both tyres. No grip in the wet! Numerous close calls, slipping across the road. Then finally on a damp day both tyres lost grip without warning, at low speed, and I lost the rear of my Kevlar jeans sliding down the road under my cruiser. Wear indicators not visible on rear tyre!
Dear ConRod We are sorry to hear about your experience. We would like to understand more about it, a Michelin representative will contact you for further support and assistance. Regards Michelin
