Michelin Road Classic tires
« on: March 04, 2026, 01:38:00 PM »
While searching the internet for new tires I learned that my ‘95 Cal 1100 is considered a classic motorcycle these days. Not a great selection of tires for it anymore.
Anyone here have any experience with these tires? What would the hive recommend?

On a customer's Jackal (same sizes tires IIRC), I installed Shinko 230 Tour Masters - 110/90 front and a 130/90 rear.

 I installed a set F+R Michelin Road Classic Bias Ply OEM sizes 150/70/17 & 110x90x18.  Could not be happier so far.  American Tires had best price.

I have the Michelin Road Classics on my V7 850 and am happy with them. I'd rank them better than the Dunlop Sportmax Roadsmart and Pirelli Sport Demon tires on the same bike.
