michelin s38 tires?

Has anyone ran these tires. I'm looking at using them as a temporary tire on my softail but then using them on my hard tail. Does anyone have pics of them on a hardtail

I think a couple of Razzo's hardtail bikes run these tires. Check him out at razzomoto.com

I Think you mean S83 Tyres ? I have michelin S83's on mine.They hav'nt been on for long but first impressions they seem good. One thing to watch out for.When I got mine I noticed one is made in Yugoslavia (rayon plie) and the other is made in Italy (polyester plie). The rayon plie tyre weighs 500g more than the polyester one.So far I have the heavier one on the back,but being of heavy construction it looks slightly narrow compared to the polyester one also the rayon plie tyre compound could be slightly softer.
Cheers.
