Actually the stock tires lasted phenomenally long on mine...I picked up a nail on the rear; the tread was marginal but within safe limits. No point in patching the tire; it was time
Had 8200 miles on it. Still some wear on the front; but I got them both done in anticipation of this trip.
On my Burgman 650, I would go through rears every 5500 miles and fronts at 10,000. So, I'm pleased with the mileage.
I have Bridgestones on it now - for the price. I'm not happy - in certain situations, road surface or grooved concrete, they feel squirmy. More so than with stock tires. Next time it will be stock or a premium brand.
