Being an all weather daily rider, I ask a lot of my tyres. Long wearing, grip in wet and dry conditions, able to cop abuse from bad road surfaces and last but not least, good handling with consistent and predictable behaviour. A unicorn tyre. In 40 years of riding, I have yet to meet a street tyre as close to perfect for my needs as the Michelin Road 5

After the stock tyres were fully squared, I was looking for something that could last longer and provide more grip. Even though it’s most costly, the extended lifespan of the dual compound tyre means you end up paying the same for better tyres. Will look for the Road 6 after this set needs replacing.

Have travelled 16k kms on my BMW R9T, they remain round and sticky in the twisties and also grippy and confidence inspiring when wet in the city at slow speeds… it will be time to change them soon - but I probably will end up looking for the same or the latest road 6

An excellent all year and general purpose tyre. Certainly very good in the wet. My R1200rt is a good match for the tryres. Wear seems very good. I would consider these tyres excellent for touring.

These are good for everything, but especially amazing in the rain. I have them on my 2017 FZ10 which recently transferred from my touring/commuting bike into track/fun rides only, and I'm still happy with the Road 5's until they wear down. We had a lot of rainy track days this summer and I got a lot of compliments on how comfortable I'm riding in the rain, all thanks to having 100% confidence in these tires.
