Ferret, here it is:
2013 - made about 56K kms (-4K kms, bought it as a demo).
At about 20K kms, replaced OEM BT54 with PR3-120/160 and when selling my bike at 56K kms, still plenty of the tread left, especially the rear tire.
2014 - bought used at 17K kms with OEM BT54 and the front tire was toasted, unlike the rear plenty of the tread left.....
Replaced front/110 with the Dunlop RdSmart III and rear/160 with the Michelin PR3s - no complaints at all.
Now at about 55K kms, front has 6K kms and rear 10-15 K kms left, so I made on this set about 38K kms - no complaints.
I never run my tires down to the wear bar indicator...usually 4/32 left prior replacement
Now ordered Metz Z8 OEM size 110-140 and waiting for replacement/June 02.
Conditions; bike's tires are ran +2 psi higher than the specs, no commuting, no city rides, no gravel/hardened rds, shortest ride is 70 kms, 95% asphalt, 5% concrete, one rider, garage parked.
