    Tires

    I understand that my question has to do a lot with the riding style, but I'm interested in getting the general range of miles per tire change. My Bonnie, I tend to get around 7000 miles out of the rear wheels. How many miles do y'all get out of your rear tires? Darksiders need not chime in...

    any one know of another option then the Metzlers for 2010 Triumph Thunderbird. These tires for the price do not last for any bike I have owned. I have been reading about the new Michelins, any body try them yet?

    Tires

    My OEM Mettzlers are finally about worn out. I have almost 12,500 miles on my front tire (very little tread left in the center part) and just a bit more tread left on the rear which has about 10,000 miles (the original picked up a nail at about 2500 miles and needed to be replaced). I went...

    So what's the consensus on tires?

    I did some searching as best I could to find out as much info as I could about tire opinions. I hate to start another tire thread but I'm new to the R3T and have only spent 500 or so miles on the bike since I got her Nov. 19th. Therefore, I really can't form my own opinion on the Metzelers as...

    Tires

    My Metz are running a little bare so I'm looking to replace front and back tires. Just wondering what a good price for Metz - front and back are. Or for Avons or Bridgestone. Not converting to the darkside. Thanks!
  20. tires?

    I have a 2011 touring with about 5000 and my tires seem to be developing a flat strip in the middle. Is this a sign I need to replace them? How many miles should I get out of a pair? I going on a 1000 to 2000 mile trip should I replace the tires? What tires should I get? What pressure is...
