Default Michelin tires?
I was just wondering if anyone has got the new Michelin tires available for the Dynas and how well they performed vs. the Dunlops? I'm perfectly happy with my SE 180 on the rear, but it's the front that I'm most curious about.

I'm diggin' 'em so far. Got a couple thousand miles on before winter slowed me down. They are wearing well, and have a good road-feel.

I am very happy with the Michelin tires. They hold the road very well. Glad I made the change.

Michelin are supposed to be good but I don't buy any French products so I guess I'll never know. I use Bridgestone or Avon.

Made in S.C. in the good old USA!
Put them on all my other vehicles. I will put them on my HD when the time comes.
