Michelin Scorcher tyre range for Harley-Davidson motorcycles in India

Leading global tyre manufacturer Michelin announced the availability of co-branded Harley-Davidson range of Michelin Scorcher tyres in the Indian replacement market through Michelin authorised dealer network. The Michelin Scorcher 11 and the Michelin Scorcher 31 are fitted as original equipment on Harley-Davidson Sportster, Dyna, V-Rod and Harley-Davidson Street motorcycles.

This is part of the Michelin and Harley-Davidson global agreement allowing these tyres to be sold through authorised Michelin and Harley-Davidson dealers. Michelin and Harley Davidson have been global partners since 2008. The Michelin Scorcher 31 showcases three key attributes: grip, resistance to wear and maneuverability. The first radial tyre intended for the Harley-Davidson Sportster SuperLow, XR 1200, V-Rod Muscle and Night Rod Special models was the Michelin Scorcher 11 tyre which drew its inspiration from the firm’s Hypersport ranges.

Its semi-slick tread maximises the contact patch with the ground, and aramid tread plies reduce weight while resisting centrifugal growth. Its profile ensures responsive performance and stability at high speed. Its compound features Michelin SRT (Silica Rain Technology) which delivers optimum grip on damp or wet roads, as well as longer life

The six Michelin Scorcher range tyres are available across the country at all Michelin authorized dealers in addition to the Harley Davidson network in India.
