Fabulous tyres
Great grip, wet or dry, significantly better mileage than the competition
Great ride and feel safe
I have used michelins for a long time and ride in all weathers. Road 5's feel great and surefooted, but only getting similar milage to the previous Pilot Road 4's. I would buy again, but will check the price of a pair of 4's first. Both great tyres and I have had 8 sets of them in recent years.
Dear customer, Thank you for taking the time to review your tyre at michelin.co.uk. We're pleased to hear that you are happy with your tyre and hope that you will consider Michelin again in the future. All the best, The Michelin Team

Fouled swinging arm! (2011 BMW K1600GT)
I am a car/bike examiner for a large road safety charity and use my bike all year round. Having fitted several sets of Road 5 GT tyres to my K1600GT, and really thought they were a great choice, to my surprise when removing the real wheel to fit a new Road 5 yesterday I found the latest rear tyre had fouled/rubbed the swinging arm. This resulted in the tyre having a small melted/abrasion mark on the near-side edge and also the swinging arm paint wearing away -leaving a small ‘polished’ area where the tyre had been rubbing. Disappointing and clearly a safety issue :-( Can Michelin provide any feedback or comment please? On that basis couldn’t recommend to a friend - despite the positive feedback for wet/dry performance etc.
THE tyre for all occasions
Have preferred these tyres from Road2s onware, have had bikes with S21s, Avon Storms, which are good tyres, but just nothing beats the PR series for all weather grip, confidence, longevity and consistency - well other than newer versions by MIchelin
Awesome 👏🏻
I love these Road 5’s… they are great in the dry, even used them on my big KTM 1290 Super adventure S at Cadwell Park racetrack 👌🏻🤭 And as for in the wet… they are outstanding you can’t believe how good they really are in the wet such amazing grip levels. Well done Michelin 👏🏻👏🏻
Great tyres
Great in the wet and dry just about to change them after 10000 will go straight back to road 5's on my new bike
Bad experience
Bought Michelin road 5 rear tyre a month ago had traveled atleast 1000km on it and had a tyre burst
Amazing grip in all-weather
As per the title, really can not fault these tires in the slightest. Amazing grip whatever the weather.
Mitchelin road-5's
Excellent tyres, ride year round. Well worth the money 👍🏻
