What is troubling about a blog like this is that we get opinions from non experts. Not trying to offend anyone at all but there must be some data on the net that what would provide us with some REAL answers to everyone's concerns about the subject matter. For example; where is the information on sidewall strength of Dunlop, Metzeler, Avon, etc., which tire gives the most mileage, etc. For me, buying a new set of tires every ten or twelve thousand miles is dam expensive. Some say they get 18k miles out of a set of tires is hard to believe unless they are running tires until you can see day light through them. I suppose my point is; where is the real data on ALL motorcycle tires so we can make an informed decision.

[QUOTE=skratch;9673932]i know i'm just a 'layperson' and not an expert, but with the new dunlop multi compound tires, you can easily get 18k miles on a set of tires. i had almost 20k when i had mine changed out, and i only did it because i was going on a roadtrip and wanted to start with fresh rubber. i would have thought i would have got more mileage on the front, but even though i had a lot of tread, it was cupped pretty badly.[/QUOTE
