Default 200mm Rear Tire

Anyone running a 200 rear that they get more than 5k miles out of?

Got 4900 out of my first one. I do have the tire warranty though...and was able to get HD to replace it for free.

Just replaced the original Dunlop 200mm rear last week with 9500 on it.
It was no longer legal, but still had a bit of tread left in the center.
The front is still just legal, but I don't 'trust' it so I'll be replacing it this week with another Metzler to match the rear.

I've worn out a few stock 200 Dunlops on my Train.

I average about 12K or better on them.

And no, I'm not running them threadbare.

I change them when I hit the wearbars.

I had just over 8k when I changed it out. It hadn't hit the wear bars yet so I reckon a had a few miles left on it.
