Thanks for the review!
I wish Michelin would send us a set that we could try out!
Neat tires for sure!
I have now test these tyres for 4000km on my 2018 KTM sas. Great tyre on many ways works on wide range of roads. Only thing I would love to see is that front tyre should have deeper wider thread pattern, still the same type of pattern. On loser gravle road you going to miss more biffier front tyre. But overall I like these tyres they are very good.
YES! You think so too... Man Kyle wrecked hard do to lack of side lugs on the front tire. Needs just a bit more...
Old video, still a great rear tire. This is the best rear tire I've found for my year round use (98% paved, 2% FS roads) on my SuperTenere in northwest Washington. It's predictable on gravel and excellent on wet pavement, regardless of temperature. I've been badly disappointed by frequent lack of traction with the Trailmax Mission rear and Motoz GPS rear tires on cold, wet pavement.
I'll go back to this Michelin. I got 8,117 & 9,888 miles from the two I've used. The greater mileage was achieved on longer roadtrips as opposed to backroad romps.
*I run a Trailmax Mission front, didn't like the Anakee Adventure front much on gravel.
Hello, thank you very much for your reply and valuable insight regarding your experiences with this tire and the Trailmax. The Anakees do get high praise from many riders. Glad you found a setup you like. Ride safe.
Looks very like the old Tourance. Everything goes around and comes round
Ha! Ha! I mentioned that in my video. Like a "new tourance"...
How does the Anakee Adv stack up to the older Metzler Tourance (which I have and really like)? Long tread life...
Thank you for your inquiry Christopher. The new more modern tread compound and structure might give tire an edge over the older Tourance. I think they are worth a go.... - Kyle & the Chap Moto Team
Thanks! did I miss something, is this a bias ply or radial ?
And is there any word on milage yet?
Hello Dave, they are offered in bias an radial depending on tire size. We have seen/read reports of mileage upwards of 8,500 miles with these tire.
@@chaparralmotorsports thank you!
Looking to buy those for my round trip To Alaska Proudhoy Bay and Tuktoyaktuk NT and back 15k miles need two sets for sure bike Ktm 1090r....
Or just get an
Sounds like a great trip! Not even a K60 will take you 15k miles fully loaded... These Anakee Adventure tires stick way better to wet roads than most other ADV tires I have run. They are worth a shot... - Kyle & the Chap Moto Team
How do you like the Mitas E07 ?
Great question. I have just received my sets of E07, E07+ and the E10's for testing. Here in the next month I will have tested them and will have a real seat of the pants response for you... Thanks for watching. - Kyle
Do you think this is a good replacement choice for a 90% on road (and wet) over my EXCELLENT Batlax A41's STOCK?
Hello, take a look at this post and video and it may provide some useful information: www.chapmoto.com/blog/motorcycle-gear-guides/adv-motorcycle-tires/
I bought the tires from your website and was supposed to receive a $30 Visa card. Tires arrived but no card. Messaging on your website is broken. No email listed. Tires 6 months old.
Thank you for your comment Peter. 6 month old tires are fresh as they sit on the water for 3 months minimum. Check this out: ua-cam.com/video/38nqKPto1ng/v-deo.html Now regarding the $30 Visa Card promotion, it is a Mail in Rebate if you will. You need to go to Michelins website, fill out the form, attach proof of purchase and they will send you a Gift Card. The link to the promotion can be found here: www.chapmoto.com/blog/coupons-rebates-and-promotions/ Thanks for watching! -- Kyle & the Chap Moto Team
will these tires fit my 2019 crf250l rally?
Hello, they have a front tire that would work, but the only 18" they have for the rear is a 150/70-18/. Your bike came with a 120/80-18.
What's your opinion about Metzeler Tourance?
Hello, the Metzeler Tourance are a good option. They deliver a relatively quiet ride on the pavement, provide really good traction, offer predictable handling, and you can get upwards of 10K miles on the front and a little less on the rear depending on your riding style/terrain.
@chaparralmotorsports Thank you, how do they perform on wet?
What tyre do you recommend on Honda Transalp 700, I ride most of the time on road and occasionally some light off road?
Thank you in advance!
I think the difference between the Wild and the others off road will be FAR greater then they would on road.
Yes, the Wild is not a really good road tire... Dues okay... but is not great. We really were impressed with this Anakee Adventure tire.
Anybody with any common Sense would know that tire will not do well in sand snow or mud. It's just not made for that but it's great to see a dual compound adventure tire that should be a standard for a given by today's technology.
Totally agreed. However... the conditions presented themselves and and if we did not test the tire in those conditions, which we rarely get here in So Cal, we just had to... Thanks for watching. We rode these tires like a renal car.... they did really really well. Full video to be released in the next couple days. - Kyle & the Chap Moto Team
just put a set on my R1200GS they are noisy as f when not going straight other wise seem ok off road and hwy.
Hello. yea these are good tire but some riders can find the, noisy. It depends multiple factors such as your noise sensitivity, your motorcycle, your helmet, they road type, etc.
If u use the momentum in the sand is not a good test for tire on sand
We did use momentum, but also started from a dead stop in sandy sections to test the tire's capability in both scenarios.
I haven’t noted that 🤭
So glad my GS did not come with anakee3
Yeah, this will be a common "thank you BMW".... These new tires are GREAT.
They came on my 2015 R1200GS. I got nearly 13K miles out of them and never noticed any problem with noise. I switched to all-street tires, but now I will likely switch back to Anakee Adventure tires.
@@HJC1950 anakee adventure look rather interesting. Good compromise I think.
The anakee 3 tyres are way too noisy. I would test these tyres on another GS before purchase
Yes, the Anakee 3 tires are very noisy. Even more so than my K60 Scout tires! We have about 1k miles on the Anakee Adventure tires and they are still quite! -- Kyle
highdef 1080p It’s the road surface,,i was in Montana on some beautiful roads,,,no tire noise just engine sound , it was great!!
I have no issue with anakee 3. Best tire I ever had. I am look forward to buy the same tires. ;)
Why did they get the nick name panicky? 🤔
Not sure?
Michelin didn't brag about the Anakee IIIs on wet pavement, so I had some doubts when riding on mine, although I never went down on them. They do brag about the Anakee Adventure's performance in the wet, which is reassuring.
I have the Anakee 3 tires on my GS, they came standard, and I really don't like them. Firstly they are very noisy on the road for a tire that doesn't have a heavy tread. Secondly and more importantly they provide very little feedback while at the same time inspiring little confidence, they are truly horrible on tar snakes. The only reason they are still on the bike is because I'm not sure what to fit instead, I don't want to be out of the frying pan into the fire. I like the look of the Anakee Adventure, but my Anakee 3 experience makes me nervous of them.
Hello, have a look at our ADV tire shootout, it may help you find a tire that's right for you. www.chapmoto.com/blog/motorcycle-gear-guides/adv-motorcycle-tires/
Hard to trust anyone doing a tire review that says anything positive about the Anakee 3. In 34 years of riding, I’ve never encountered a spookier or less confidence inspiring tire than the Anakee 3. They had terrible grip. Cornering and wet conditions were the worst. They were OEM on my ‘15 R1200GS. I threw them away after 1,500 miles. I can’t trust a review that doesn’t point out the Anakee 3’s dangerous grip issues.
Thank you for your comment Duane M. I ran the Anakee 3's when they were first released on my 2008 R1200GSA. I rode them on a 5 day trek in late 2012 covering nearly 3k miles from the San Fran Bay Area up to Yosemite, into the snow (they sucked)... Up and over to Mono Lake, North into Oregon and then down the coast through the Avenue of the Giants and ... back home. The Anakee 3 worked great for me in all situations - except for Snow. They were LOUD and that was the reason I took them off... I have not run them since that ride... as there are (in my opinion) more off road capable tires in the same genre of tire... And because I like a more knobby / aggressive tire. -- Kyle
I fully agree with Duane M. Anakee 3 was the worse tyres I ever used on my 1200 GS ADV. Especially the front tyre. No grip in cornering, no grip on wett conditions.
I used the Anakee 3 in try conditions only in Death Valley when the tire was released. Other than being LOUD on the highway, It did surprisingly well. I did ride it in the Snow and it was MISERABLE. I could not keep the bike off its side.... and like 5 miles took me ALL Day. It was rough. Thanks for taking the time to comment and share you opinion / feedbak. - Kyle
Your experience with Anakee 3's mirrors mine, it's hard to put my finger on exactly what it is that makes them feel so unnerving, but I don't feel confident to push the bike at all there is no feedback from them, yet I sense a lack of grip. In addition the noise level for a tire that is so close to a road tire tread wise is ridiculous and irritating. Still trying to decide on what to replace them with.
I ran two sets of Annekee 3's With ZERO issues they ran fine .
Unless you got them on wet grass they moved you .
And Noise I never ever heard them ....
I think a lot of BS from people who ride 99 % dirt and roads are suggestive. ..
As a road and dirt road tire they worked fine .
I switched up to Adventures and they are holding up just fine.
I think some brand loyalty out there is more hype than reality .
I hear many complaints on the popular names made me think there's no trusting feed back on fourns at all ........
Cause it just did not match up with real world riders .
when older like me : smell a con man salesman mile away ! u dont really recamend the tiere lol
Greasy chicken fingers strike again. LOL.
300 miles on an average ride for me, so 3500 miles from a set is $40 bucks a ride.
not ever buying another set of any tires that burn up so quickly. lame!!
Sorry to hear you weren't happy with these.
these tires are only good on the road, they came on my gs have been horrible on anything other than hard dirt or road.
Understandable. These are 80/20 (road/offroad tires) so they are not geared for heavy offroad terrain or use. Although in our testing we found them to be quite good amongst 80/20 tires, coming in second only to the Shinko 705s. Thanks for watching and commenting.
The Anakee 3 is the worst tyre ever !!!!
Ha! Ha! We have heard this from multiple (squared) people... Seems to be a common thought. - Kyle
@@chaparralmotorsports I removed mine just with 200 km ( Out of the dealer ) this is my second GSA ( 2018 model) , first had the (2014 model ) . Dunlop Trailsmart, Dunlop Trailsmart max are great, Now running with metzeler karoo street and next will try metzeler Roadtec 01 . But Michekin anakee never again ...
I make 20.000 Km a year ( Road , Highway, gravel , dirt )
Why? I was fine with Anakee IIIs on my wethead GS, although I was afraid to push them hard on wet pavement.
bridge block technology? bullshit,
old tourance are as good if not better than these, just advertising pushing the latest newest thing.
oh, ok.
Another internet expert 🤣😂
