Newbie darkside 1k report

New to the Dark side, my o6 flh ate rear tires for 100,000 miles. I so looked forward to getting the opportunity to try the ct. 9600 was all the factory afforded me on the 19 road king. Now I have my 1,000 miles on the ct. on a flat road I notice the road changes just a little, but no uneasy feeling. 39 psi in the dunlop 2000. It hangs great in the corners. My $2 tread depth guage didn't show any wear after the 1k miles. If i get 20k miles from this tire I'll be dancing in the street!

Hope it works for you. 20,000 on a rear car tire is not to much to except. Depending on the tire.
But if all you got was 9,600 miles on the 180 factory Dunlop . You have other issues going on.
