I`ve got 27k on my front tire on `11 Roadking with a little tread left. The back i changed out at 14k only because i was heading out on a long trip. i`m sticking with them. but if they gave me problems i would change to something else.

I have had good luck with dunlop and metzler, same mileage. Had a tire delamination with a veerubber...for price, ride and mileage, I usually stick with dunlop, but will keep an eye out for cracks...

Happy as can be with my stock Dunlops. 15K from the front. 11K from the rear. I have a 110 motor and like to twist it. This mileage seems about right to me.
