My E3 was toast at 12,400 miles while being fastidious about air pressure and almost all miles were 1-up touring. Not bad, but not as good as many others are getting. I, too, had some cupping. Currently running an Avon. Only 7,000 miles on the Avon so far. I do find it to be quieter than the E3.

That's right! 14,105 miles on the Elite 3 tire. My 2007 Ultra Classic has never gotten anywhere close to 6,000 miles on regular Dunlop, Michelin, Avon or Metzler, but the Elite 3 got-r-done. I weigh 270 lbs and have never expected too much, but this is good. My first Elite 3 got about 11,000 miles. These extra miles on the latest tire include a Stugis trip and road miles like that take very little off a tire....Changing the tire today (with another E-3).
