I run 41 rear 38 front and have 10.700 miles on the stock dunnies and they still look good so far but thats when they usually go down hill fast, will see on this bike. On my VTX1800R I got what your talking out of the stock dunnies and replaced with Avon Venoms and got 17 k out of them. I'm thinking of getting the Avon's or the Elite 3's by Dunlop but need to do more research before buying.

On my 06 EG I had 12.1k and it was shot. It should have been changed around 9-10 but I was on my 5k ride from CT to Key West and back. It was a great ride but that rear was shot. I changed it last week when I got back and it needed it...
