Michelin T63 Rear Tire - 130/80-17

I really like the off road performance of this tire on my small Crf230m. I converted my motard to a more dual sport type bike and have really put this tire through some tough times. I've taken it on single track in the oregon coastal woods and up some pretty slimy red clay hills. With a little application of throttle, it throws clears itself very well and acts more like a paddle tire in sand and loose gravel which I really like. It will push you through the junk in a hurry. On road, you know you dont have a lot of sidewall to play with when leaning into the corners and you can feel the tread flex a bit, but I havent had any issues with it letting go, thats for certain. If I have to get on the brakes hard I do notice more skid than a normal streat tire but I would expect that with the larger gaps and non continuous tread contact with the ground. Overall I'm very very happy with this tire and wouldnt hesitate to put it on any bike that will see severy off road conditions. If youre more of a 50/50 rider, I would look into the Heidenau K60 Scout for your needs.

I am rating this off-road tire set 5 stars because I have had a chance to test them in different road conditions. I bought these for an off-road trip I had planned for Baja. I rode 250+/- highway miles, then did 3 days off road and back 250 road miles. I commute 50 miles roundtrip a day, 4 days a week for months and these tires have performed well in different conditions including rain. Off road capability was good on hard pack, gravel and hard sand and mud. Loose beach sand takes a little more experience to handle but I always felt confident and had zero falls while in Baja. I expected this tire to be noisy on the highway but it is not at most speeds, perhaps a little while braking to slow down. Great tire in my opinion!

I put this tire on my Dr650se, and have been using it both on and off the road. I have also used dunlop d606s, the death wings, and shinko 244s. I don't like this tire as much as the dunlop in the dirt mud or otherwise off road, just doesn't hook up as nice. However it has good road manners is quiet as a mouse, and I think lasts a lot longer(only 600 miles on it currently). This tire is just starting to lose it's sharp edges on the center lugs after 600 miles of 50/50 riding.Those tires in order imo is the d606, t63, 244s, and last and most certainly the worst tire on the face of the planet for any dirt riding those pesky trail wings.

I put this tire on a 2009 KLX250sf - I used a Continental TKC 80 front since the T63 does not come in the size for a front on my bike. There is very little road noise and the grip is far better than I expected on an aggressive off road tire. The price is VERY right. Some review say they wear out quickly but I don't know that yet, I have about 500 miles on mine. I just ordered a set for another bike so I will update the review once spending some time on those. So far it's an excellent dual sport tire that is geared to dirt but road capable. Once I got used to the vibration on curves I was able to lean a lot further than I expected. Great for mud - I tested that this past weekend. Hard pack red clay and also wet red clay mud - no problems.

Have only had these on for about 400 miles. Most have been on-road. These have a good bit of road noise at most speeds, but look at them. you can fit your thumb between the lugs. I came from a set from Anakee 2's which are legendary on-road, but I wanted more traction and stability off-road, where most of our rides eventually end up. These don't disappoint. Stopping and going are greatly improved over my previous tires. I don't expect to get much more than 2,000-2,500 miles off these since I spend a lot of time on the road, but they're cheap and they look great on my bike. When I'm parked somewhere, little kids that walk by think I'm riding a "Dirt Bike"

used on a klr 650. ive gone thru a couple of these, love them. good for off road. and im not talking about a dirt road. did some gnarly hill climbs with these. cheaper than conti, better on road than d606. actually very good on road as well, took the canyon roads hard and kept up with my buddy on his multistrada.

What a difference this tire makes on my KLR. Was looking for a great 50/50 and I found it. A little loud on the highway but overall very stable, once you go offroad this tire comes alive! I am blown away by how well the KLR performs with this tire.

excellent tire for my 2014 klr 650, I will always use this tire
