BMW R1200RT K1200GT Yamaha FJR 1300 Tires Michelin Pilot Road 2 Rear and Front
I hate having to go look up my tires every time that I need new ones. I have been riding many miles and wearing out my tires on the BMW R1200RT so I thought I would post this page to keep my tire order forms in one place. Feel free to use this order form if you need tires for your BMW R1200 RT BMW K1200GT or Yamaha FJR1300. The rear tire is for the “B” fitment and is specific to the models listed here. It is meant to decrease wear in heavy loads and 2 up riding.

I have a R1200RT 2005 with 33.5K miles on it, so far I have used 3 tire brands already (Dunlop Qualifiers, Metzellers and Pirelli Diablo Strada)so far my best tire has been the Pirelli´s, but, at this point in time I need a new set of tires and I thinking on the Michellin Pilot Road 2´s.
I have checked reviews from other riders for lighter bikes (2007 Suzuki Bandit 1250S) and they have reported getting 14K miles out of the set which is amazing, now the question I have is if this kind of performance could be expected on a R1200RT which is at least 100 pounds heavier.
Any comments?
Best regards Ernesto
