As I am new to motorcycling, I am curious to know what to expect for "lifecycle" (no pun hehee) of the parts that wear due to regular wear and tear. Just to get a ball park idea, I know MMMV...

How long to expect...
Brake pads?
Tires?
Clutch?

 

I can't speak for the Slim as I only have 1500 miles on mine. When I had my Sportster 1200, I was able to do 10,000 miles on the rear tire and about 15,000 miles on the front wheel. My front and rear pads were due to be changed at 25,000 miles. That was all of the work I had done up to 25,000 on my Sportster aside from oil changes.

I'll be looking forward to what others have to say as I am still new to Big Twins.

 

This was actually being discussed here for the tires.

Everyone's riding style is different so things ware out accordingly.
Completing your normal schedule service's should help extend the bikes longevity.
IMHO....
Enjoy the bike by riding the crap out of it.
