    Stopped manufacture a while ago -AFAIK. Think the Anakee is the replacement alternative.

    Re: Michelin tyres

    The Anakee as stated is the most up to date replacement, but do some digging around.
    I liked them when I had them on, but I now the like the Tourances on the BMW, not sure if they are as highly rated on the AT or not.
    But you won't go far wrong with the Anakee's though.
    Forum help and advice needed?

    Horrible tyres. I have a front with some mileage left on it if you want it. Chronyx had the rear. I'd rather ride on tyres made of polished ice, coated in a very slippery substance than ride on the T66s.
    Have to say, just done more than 200 miles round the UK on Metzler Lazertecs and they are stickier than a very sticky thing coated in glue.

    think American production and European production is dissimilar, its not listed on the European Michelin website anymore and has no reference to any superseded part number. it's listed on the American stock list though....

    Oow dont get the t66 they are just plain pants had em on my vara still got em will use the rear on my xrv as it nearly new but had a puncture so will fit a tube.
    Have fitted anakees to my vara now stable at 100mph were the t66 used to weave.
    Will keep the front for emergancy only.
    Get anakees if you want michelins.

    Just to say I've had no problems with it (Thanks again for it BTW!), although I haven't really ridden in the wet. I've got a Conti Escape on the front.
