Tire Mileage
How many miles can you get out of stock Dunlop tires on an Evo Sportster.??
Just casual cruising. Running them close to the cords.
Trying to figure how many miles I put on this bike. Speedo didn't work for long time (fixed now).

I'm pretty sure that I get about 10+K out of my rears and about 15+K out of the fronts.

From all the threads on this forum regarding tire mileages, i see that stock Dunlops give the highest miles before replacements are needed. Some claim to get 25k. I don't imagine that those are aggressive riders, which I'm not either. Good reason for me to stick with Dunlops, especially since i am happy with them anyway.

Manual says replace immediately when tread reaches 1/32 or wear bars show. At my 10K service 2 months ago, my rear tread depth was 6/32, but my front was only 4/32? I thought rear tires were supposed to wear faster. I check pressure regularly so what about my driving habits is wearing the front faster?
