Well it seems like the Dunlops are wearing about like my K505's did on my nighthawk. I was getting around 5000 miles out of them and that seems to be the case with his. Now me being a good 260 lbs dressed and doing the same type of riding as I did on the Nighthawk (a lighter and less powerful bike) I am getting WAY more mileage out of my Bridgestones than I ever did on the Dunlops.
Even when I was closer to 200 lbs I was still only getting right around 5000 miles out of them....20 years ago. I know the K505's are bias ply and the new Bridgestones are radials so take that with a grain of salt. Just my personal experience and a little bit of observation thrown in just to stir the pot a little.
