YEP if you ride hard all the time you will kill the tire thats expected and thats also hard on the rest of the bike so dont ***** about your bike if you beat it all the time low tire mileage is a indication of rider abuse

Not true. Most run 30-32psi, which is in the range of what they were designed for. Motorcycle tyres need more air pressure because they have a smaller contact patch.

I have no doubt that MC tyres perform better on the racetrack, but DS tyres perform more than adequately at public road speeds. However, it is the rider's choice as to what he/she uses.

I've read a couple other people praising Michelin Commander IIs on the rear of the Rocket. Are you guys running a different sized wheel? Commanders aren't offered sized even close to the 240. If I'm incorrect please tell me where I can buy one.

mport has a Touring, which has a much narrower tire than the Standard/Classic/Roadster
