Michelin Road 5

Has anyone tried these on an XTX?
Thinking of giving them a go in the spring.

Decided there was no time like the present. I’ll update when I have a better idea, but initial impressions are good in both dry and wet conditions. Good feedback and stability. Just need the cars to get the hell out of my way so I can really test them. So far though, every bit as good as Distanzias and Trail riders.

Can’t get pics to show, so only an IMGUR link sorry.
Tried clicking the image button and pasting link, but just shows a little box for some reason.

I use the Road Pilot 4 on my XTX, really impressed me, especially in the wet. I assume the "5" is even better.

Wet weather performance is even better than the Avon Trailriders and I thought they were excellent.
Looking forward to spring so I can properly test them in the dry.
