Michelin Anakee 2

Anyone try these tires yet? Ratings seem to be positive across the board. The sizes would be in an 80 aspect ratio versus our stock 70 for both front and rear.

80 will be tall and very round, i wouldn't use anything but a 140/70

Since december 2011 and 1500 Km i have on my WR250X :

Front : Anakee 2 120/90/17
Rear : Anakee 2 150/70/17

It is good shoes for 70% off road

On road the front wheel is too heavy but there isn't 110/70 or 120/70 in Anakee

Any issues with chain-to-tire clearance?

I use a Bridgestone BT023 (pure street) 150/70/17 and it does occasionally nip at the edge of the tire.
Next tire I'll try the new Bridgestone S20 in a 150/60/17 size.

For dirt I have SW Moto R rims laced to X hubs, and run real enduro dirt tires: Dunlop D606.
