Those of you that have been getting in excess of 9000 miles, what part of the country do you ride in, and a bit about your riding?
I'm in South central, (live in Houston), I admit that I trailer to the events {so I don't accumulate miles on the interstate}.
Most of my riding is at COG events.
ie; Lots of twisties...
I get 4000 - 5000 miles tops. Normally less...
Ride safe, Ted
I rarely ever ride on the interstate. Most of the roads I ride are curvy. Pavement is usually tar and chip or asphalt. Dual compound tires really don’t benefit me much I typically wear out the sides of the tires before the middle and for some reason, the front tire wears as fast as my rear on the Connie. First bike I’ve had that I’m not getting 2 rear tires to each front. I’m thinking traction control might play a part in that. I’m currently running Angel GT A-spec. I have 4100 miles on them and I’ll need replacements sometime within the next 1000 miles. It would be nice to find a tire that would last a bit longer, but I don’t want to give up the handling I’ve grown use to.
