21" bagger tire question
Hey guys, I'm looking to replace the 21" tire on my bike. I'm looking at either the Michelin Commander II or the Metzelers. Both are rated at 68H load ratings and are about the same price. Anybody have any info or used the Michelins?

I have used a Michelin commander 2 and now I currently have the Metzeler. When my Metz runs out I will be going back to a Michelin!! Best tire I have used by far.

I ran the Metzeler 880's front & rear. Thought they handled better than the stock Dunlops. I put the rear Metzeler on first & ended up getting about 16K mi out of it. A few months later when I put on my 21" I put on the Metzeler 880 and got about 12k mi on that one.
Just put Michelin Cmdr II's on the rear last month & the front last week. I am impressed with the handling of the Michelin's. Can't speak to the wear factor yet, but all looks good. Price was about the same if I recall.
If I can get as much mileage or more out of the Michelin's, I'll be happy & probably stick with Cmdr II's.
