I needed a rear tire for my CTX1300. Found a Michelin Commander II on Amazon for$171. When I went to order it the price was $200(200/55/17)
Found a (175/55/R17) for $56. Couldn't resist. Got it today and I like what I see. Will update in a few months.

The gl1800 group have posted getting 24k-40k miles with good handling at 1/4 the price. I got 8k on my OEM back tire. Already replaced front $208 installed. Thought I'd be the test pilot.

There are a bunch of examples on YouTube.

Just bought this for the front. Got a new 200/55/17 Commander II on my CTX. $210 installed @8500miles. Front replaced @7500 by Honda for only $216. Pays to shop around.

Finally had to replace factory tires at 6000 miles. The car tire definitely handles differently. you have to muscle the bike over in a turn. hope i get used to it soon.

Achilles ATR-k Economist All-season Radial 175/55-17 Amazon about $$48
I let the tire pressure slip down to about 30lbs and the ride and cornering improved. Went back to 40lbs. Now, when the ride and cornering improve I know to add air. Happy so far.
