Frequently Asked Questions

What bikes does this tire fit?

Michelin Scorcher 11 in 160/60R18 fits select Harley models. Confirm your bike's spec in the owner's manual or tire placard before ordering.

Michelin rates Scorcher 11 for good mileage. Tread depth and wear depend on riding style and road conditions — inspect regularly per the manual.

Can I mix Scorcher 11 front and rear on my bike?

Best looking and performing tire for Harley period!

2012 Fatboy Lo looks insane with these tires. Get compliments on how the bike looks especially with the flat black paintwork. Strongly recommend this set of tires on anybody's Fatboy Lo. The grip is above my expectations. Have to catch myself because I'm scrapping footboards everywhere because I get overconfident with the grip LOL. Strongly recommend...enjoy!!

Coast to Coast TWICE on a VRod

Held up like a champ. Grip was impressive. Good ride, quick to come up to temp. I'm only switching to a different tire to try the Dunlop Q3 in a 240 width as an experiment. If you have a VRod, you will LOVE this tire. <br /><br />Oh, and I put 2 track days on the tire as well. Awesome cornering grip. Seriously.

Great Rear Tire !

I've ridden 1,000 miles thus far on this tire (rear 240 / 40 / 80) on my 2009 Harley Rocker. Great traction in wet & dry conditions. Look awesome, and I get lots of compliments. Will buy again.

good tire horrible wear

Unfortunately these are the only tires i can buy for my bike. Tread life on these tires is not impressive at all. My old bike i was averaging around 14.000 miles. I'm lucky to get 5.000 out of these. Your pricing compared to the dealer is awesome. Still would like to see other companies manufacture these tires for my 2018 Fat Boy special.

Grippy Tires in Curves

Ordered a replacement set for my 2011 Sportster 883XL at 7000 miles. Placed order around 10:00 AM on Friday and got them at my front door 1:00 PM Saturday morning! Impressive. Wow, what a difference these new tires made! It was noticeable in the turns and over all performance very much improved.
