The sixth generation of the sport-touring motorcycle tires Michelin Road was unveiled in 2022. The model is compatible with a wide range of heavy motorcycles, attracting attention with its stable grip properties on both dry and wet roads, predictable handling characteristics, and long service life. The tire's dual-compound tread is designed according to the proprietary 2CT+ concept, featuring a firmer central zone for excellent directional stability and softer shoulders for confident cornering.

The Michelin Road 6 180/55 R17 73W tread is covered with short and deep grooves that ensure instant drainage of excess water from the contact patch. The rubber compound also boasts enhanced wet-weather performance and is called Michelin Silica Rain. For the front axle of motorcycles, the tire is available in six sizes with rim diameters of R17 and R19, and for the rear wheel, it is offered in eight sizes with a diameter of R17. These tires are suitable for both everyday riding and long-distance motorcycle journeys.
