The Anakee Adventure 2 is designed for Adventure and Touring motorcycles, prioritizing high-mileage road riding with capability for off-road trails.

How does the dual-compound technology benefit the rider?

What is the recommended tire pressure?

Recommended tire pressure varies by motorcycle model. Always consult your motorcycle's owner's manual or the sticker on the bike for the specific pressure recommendations for front and rear tires.

How does Silica Technology improve performance?

Michelin's Silica Technology enhances the tyre's ability to grip in wet conditions, providing improved traction and confidence when riding in rain or on damp roads.

What is the expected lifespan of this tyre?

The Anakee Adventure 2 is designed for extended longevity and high-mileage use, making it a durable choice for long journeys. Actual lifespan depends on riding style, conditions, maintenance, and load.

Can I use this tyre year-round?

Troubleshooting

Vibrations or imbalance during riding.

Ensure the tyre was properly balanced during installation. Check for any visible damage or foreign objects lodged in the tread. If the issue persists, have the tyre re-balanced by a professional.

Reduced grip in wet conditions.

Verify tire pressure is within the recommended range. Ensure the tyre is not excessively worn. Clean the tyre to remove any road contaminants. If the tyre is old or significantly worn, consider replacement.

Rapid or uneven tread wear.

Check and adjust tire pressure regularly. Ensure the motorcycle's suspension is functioning correctly. Avoid aggressive riding styles if the tyre is intended for high-mileage touring. Consult a professional if uneven wear is noted.

Tyre making unusual noise.

Some noise is normal, especially on certain road surfaces. However, a significant change or loud noise could indicate an issue. Check for damage, proper inflation, and ensure no foreign objects are stuck in the tread. If noise persists, have it inspected.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility:

This tyre is specifically designed for Adventure and Touring motorcycles. Ensure your motorcycle's rim size and load/speed rating are compatible with the `170/60 R17 72V` specification. Always consult your motorcycle's owner manual for recommended tyre sizes and specifications.

Setup:

Professional installation by a qualified motorcycle mechanic is highly recommended. This includes proper mounting, balancing, and inflation to the manufacturer's specified pressure. Incorrect installation can lead to poor performance, premature wear, and safety risks.

Care:

  • Tire Pressure: Regularly check and maintain the correct tire pressure as recommended by your motorcycle manufacturer. Under or over-inflation significantly impacts performance, safety, and tire life.
  • Visual Inspection: Periodically inspect the tyre for cuts, embedded objects, unusual wear patterns, or damage.
  • Cleaning: Clean the tyre with mild soap and water. Avoid using harsh chemicals or petroleum-based cleaners, which can degrade the rubber.
  • Storage: If storing the motorcycle for extended periods, ensure tyres are properly inflated and consider using tyre savers or placing the bike on stands to prevent flat spots.
