10 000 kilometers on Michelin Anakee Adventure

Posted on July 21, 2019December 1, 2020 by Knut Meyn 6 Comments

10.000 kilometers on Michelin Anakee Adventure. That’s the status to date. I am every bit as satisfied as I was after the first impressions. Recently I was out riding on gravel again. No other tires I’ve had on my 2016 BMW R1200GS Adventure have felt this good around 10 000 kilometers. Some of the tires…read more>>

Anakee Adventure, gravel, dirt and offroad review

Posted on April 29, 2019April 5, 2020 by Knut Meyn Leave a comment

Anakee Adventure by Michelin is a dual sport tire. Designed for pavement as well as riding off the beaten track, on gravel, dirt and offroad. That is the claim, and so says reviews I’d seen prior to acquiring a set . Being a 80/20, or 80 percent on-road and 20 percent offroad, I was excited…read more>>

Michelin Anakee Adventure review & first impressions

Posted on April 18, 2019April 13, 2020 by Knut Meyn 6 Comments

Michelin Sirac – first experiences Fall 2017 I bought my second motorcycle, a 1995 Honda XL600v Transalp. Decided that I needed something lighter, something for commuting and shorter…read more>>

Tire-some topic (again), and a “bold” decision

Posted on May 15, 2018March 24, 2019 by Knut Meyn 2 Comments

Tire-some yet important topic for us who rides motorcycles. I am talking about tires. I see lots of praise, of many types of tires. Most of them more offroad biased, at the expense of tarmac handling, durability, noise and a bunch of other considerations. A brilliant tire decision, for me Last year, as the first…read more>>

Tires, a tiring topic you cannot retire from

Posted on December 3, 2017April 24, 2018 by Knut Meyn 11 Comments

Since picking up riding again, after more than a quarter of a century “in darkness”, the topic around and about tires bounces back, all the time. What to choose, and what to use. Tires, not an -ism, not a religion although sometimes I wonder if that is exactly what the topic has evolved, or rather…read more>>
