The Michelin Road 5 110/70 ZR17 M/C 54W TL is a front sport touring motorcycle tyre developed for riders demanding confident road performance on everyday riding, longer journeys and mixed wet or dry conditions. With a 110 mm width, 70-series profile and 17-inch radial construction, the tyre utilises a 54W load/speed rating, making it suitable replacement only for motorcycles whose manufacturer-approved specifications fit this size and rating. The TL marking denotes it as a tubeless tyre. Michelin’s Road 5 range is aimed at sport touring use, with focus on wet-road performance and riding enjoyment.
The Michelin Road 5 utilises Michelin’s 2CT technology for the front, combined with Water Evergrip technology and Radial ACT+ construction. The technology is claimed to deliver strong wet grip and consistent road performance, including as the tyre wears. The tread features water-management features aimed at maintaining useful groove volume as the tread wears, contributing to water evacuation on wet roads. Michelin also highlights the Road 5’s Radial ACT+ technology as part of its construction for dry-road grip, stability and handling.
For Indian riders, this 110/70 ZR17 front size is applicable to a range of middleweight and road-oriented motorcycles, but the fitment must be checked against the motorcycle’s model year, manufacturer tyre specification and approved load/speed rating. Documented Michelin Road 5 original-equipment applications are motorcycles such as the Bajaj Dominar 400, BMW R nineT Scrambler, Honda CB500 Naked & Sport, KTM Duke 125/250/390/790, Triumph Trident, TVS Apache 310 RR, Yamaha MT-07 and Yamaha XSR700. The list should be treated as model-specific fitment information rather than a universal compatibility list.
On the road, Michelin Road 5 tyres deliver a front engineered around wet-weather grip, controlled braking, cornering stability and predictable handling. The 54W rating specifies a W speed category, with a 54 load index; the 54 load index denotes a 212 kg maximum load per tyre, while W specifies speeds up to 270 km/h, under the motorcycle manufacturer’s limits and correct application.
