|  Tire Wear How many miles/kilometers do you usually get out of your tires? Right now i got about 4500 kilometers (2,796 miles) I am not a very hard rider through corners. I still think my tire has alot of wear left.

| The original Bridgestones on my 1400 lasted 8000 km. The rear was down on the warning bars, the front could have gone another 2000 km or so, but I replaced both with Conti RoadAttacks.

| I went 7000 miles on the original Macadam 90s. They weren't totally shot, but I was planning a long trip. The rear was flat-spotted and the front was cupped pretty badly.
