Looks like we are in Parallel Lanes
I replied the following to an old post "Available Tires" and was on the fence as to whether to run or replace my Michelins
The wheels were off as I had to replace the pads and rotors.
The prevailing wisdom is to run them then try something different. This is the Tread
I an still looking for answers for the choppy wear pattern both front and rear.
Good luck with your trip down south.
I'll update this post as people provide info. But, I wanted to put a table of the tire choices currently available as replacements for the STANDARD tire on the ST1100. The Front/Rear columns will be the tire model designators IF that brand supplies one for the front and/or rear. ***...

Hi Looking for tire recommendations
Have a pair of Michelin Pilot Road 3 tires mounted. Are these any good for a Non ABS ST 1100?
I have never ridden this bike and have concerns about the choppy wear pattern both front and rear. That is to say if I run a hand along the contact surface of the tires they are bumpy. Almost saw tooth in nature. I think these are a dual compound tire and the soft part gives it up leaving the center with more to go.
Would I be OK running these to feel the bike out or should I just start fresh. This is subjective but I value all input
