What kind of mileage were you looking to get from a set of tires??
I have worn out a set at 8k before
I have a set on now with 2500 miles are are looking a little worn.
I ride to work on twisty's everyday.
A big difference on the pavement you ride on. How fast you ride, how hard you push into the turns.
You will find if you ride slower and stop easy your tires will last longer
You should start looking for a new set around 7 or 8 K miles

Good Luck

Not sure where Los gatos is, but Quaid HD in Loma Linda, CA (SoCal) gave me a free D408F at 7000 miles. The MS is Trisha.

you will not get a new rear tire. but if you tell the dealer you are afraid to ride because of vibration you should get a new front tire.
