I put the Commanders on my '06 UC. Much better than the Dumlops that came with it. I'll use them again.

I put the Michelin Commanders on my '06 SG, much improved ride over the stock dunlops. The only negative thing I can say about them is they look a little narrower than the stock tire when looking at the rear of the bike.

I replaced my original Dunflops with Commanders at 11,000. They were a definite improvement and I've been very happy with them. I'm at 23,000 now and just bought a set of E3's to put on. I've heard so much about the E3's that I decided to give them a try, hope I didn't screw up...........

Hey Thanks everyone for your input. I had pretty much made up my mind before. Ya'll just help confirm my reasoning. BTW, would mounting them on a spoked contour wheel (with tubes) make a difference? Thanks again.

++ on Elite IIIs. they ride and handle great, as opposed to the stock Dunlops I had. Ride two up with a trailer, and have about 10k on them. really pleased so far with the mileage versus what i got with the stockers.
