ROAD CLASSIC Tyre 110/80 - 17 57V by Michelin

The Michelin Road Classic is a road motorcycle tyre designed for classic bikes and urban as well as touring rides. Its design aims to enhance grip on wet surfaces, contact on dry roads, and stability compared to the previous generation.

Design and Materials

• The deep grooves and multiple edges of the tread pattern reduce water film to promote grip on wet surfaces.
• The 100% silica compound improves wet grip while enhancing the tyre's longevity.
• The two carcass plies provide the necessary rigidity for stability while maintaining flexibility for comfort.
• The two tread plies limit centrifugal forces at high speeds to preserve the tyre's performance.

Usage and Performance

• Wet grip improves by 50% compared to the previous generation, boosting confidence in the rain.
• The central slick zones and shoulder areas optimise ground contact on dry roads.
• Cornering stability improves by 50% compared to the previous generation to support trajectories.
• Straight-line stability improves by 40% compared to the previous generation for more precise handling.
• The tyre's expected longevity reduces the frequency of replacements.

Installation and Mounting

• The 110/80 - 17 size with a load index of 57 and a speed rating of V makes it easy to identify the suitable replacement tyre.
• Designed for front mounting, this tyre fits the corresponding configuration of the motorcycle.
• The tubeless mounting without an inner tube simplifies installation on a rim designed for this technology.
• Tube-type mounting is also possible to accommodate this wheel configuration.
