Sorry to bring back an old thread. But, I have had experience with the Michelin City Grip tires and they are fantastic! I use the 120/80-16 rear (which weighs 5 lbs less than the stock dunlop) and a 90/80-16 up front (4 lbs off the front tire over the stock dunlop). The grip is outstanding in dry and wet weather. I get about 4-5k out of a rear and double for a front. Excellent handling tires, the bike even felt noticeably quicker in acceleration, the braking felt better at high speeds (hard braking into sharp corner), and the suspension seemed to track a little better over minor imperfections in the road (it felt more responsive, but less sloppy). Overall, I'd give them a 8.5/10 for the tires. Excellent price point, great grip, and less weight! It's got great benefits all around.
