The michelin commander ii (240/40R18 79V rear) is michelin’s legendary, ultra-durable heavy cruiser tyre. Designed for v-twin power cruisers and wide-wheel custom builds, the commander ii set the standard for long mileage by using rigid removable density (r2D) carcass architecture and high-density silica tread polymers.
Commander 2
Proven longevity
The benchmark in longevity – commissioned third-party tests show that the michelin® commander® ii rear tire lasts almost twice as long as its main competitors.*
*Commissioned third party tests conducted in 2011 on public roads comparing michelin commander ii tires, metzeler me880, and dunlop d407/D408 tires in sizes 130/80B17 and 180/65B16. individual results may vary depending on motorcycle type and operating conditions.
No compromise on stability
And maneuverability
Thanks to its high-density and therefore stiffer frame (michelin amplified density technology), michelin commander ii features premium handling and responsiveness. The top layers in rear tires are made of aramid fibers, which combine resistance and a lightweight feel for perfect stability, even at high speeds.
Excellent grip on wet surfaces
An brand new longitudinal tread provides outstanding water evacuation, and thus excellent grip on wet surfaces.
Innovative look
A radically different design for an explosive look. A “premium” sidewall finish gives your motorcycle an immaculate appearance.
