    in need of some new tyres on gs850g/t

    After a 2200 mile ride around Wales Ireland Scotland and England I am in need of some new tyres. I fancy some Michelins activ pilot front and rear tyres The bike is a gs850g/t and the manual stated sizes are 4.5x17 for the rear and 3.5x19 for the front ...Michelins sizes are 130/90/17 for the rear and 100/90 for the front .
    Can I ask people what they think of my first choice of tyres and will Michelin tyres fit the suzuki gs850g/t shaft drive .
    And can anyone suggest a good wet rated high mileage tyre.
    Thanks Derk

    I'd do either the avon roadriders or the Pirelli sport demons instead of the Michelin, but I'm not especially mileage conscientious.

        I'm running Continental TKV 11 and 12. Got about 6500 miles from the back. Can't comment on the wet grip as I back off a lot but no complaints.
