Roughly how many miles will you get on stock tires on a Softail?

Every Harley I have rode regardless of the model, I get about 7500 miles on a rear tire. Change the front tire with every other rear tire so 15K with the front.

Depends entirely on how you ride it. Why do you ask?!

Depends on how you ride, where you ride, two up or solo, where you put your gas cap and if you're a "real biker".

I've gotten anywhere from 5,000 to 9,500 miles on rear tires, usually about double that on the front. YMMV.
