Had a chat with the Michelin Rep at the dirt bike show about these boots, sure enough they are an alternative to the TKC80.
How do you find the price though compared?
Have you used TKC80 before the T63?

thanks for the heads up - what are they like in the wet? and do they make much noise or affect MPG much?

EDIT, sorry if these are stupid Q's- never had trail tyres before.

"sounds" at slow speeds 40-55 a bit like a army land rover but at 85-100mph i don't know i can't hear a thing. "mpg" i have never tested it. but ok when wet and in snow, i am taking my bike to western sahara this year in fact june so these tyre's will be fine for the job...

They are still in production but you have to look in the "small" motorcycle section on their website. Here you go:
