How long will this tire last?

I ordered the tire aftyer posting the question, i remember in 2017 RAA, one of our riders spent his entire vacation in a motel in Sheridan Wyoming because his tire gave up and there was not another one anywhere near, he had to order it from somewhere, on our way home we stoped by his motel and he was still there 4 days after waiting on his tire to arrive:eek:

And now he is MIA.
What was his name . . . Justin?
Twas a nice young man.
I wonder what hapoened to him.

Shame he had to spend his vacation in a motel room, we went back to check on him and he was in good spirit
 
New shoes and rear brake pads today.

Battle Criuse h50's were s.h.i.t.t.i.n.g. in tall cotton now. :D

Warpo,
That front tire looks backwards, like my Road 5.

Depending very much on the roads. I wore the edges off my Goodyear. Had loads left in the middle.

Sounds backasswards to me, Chris.

BTW - I now have the barbagris tail light.
Shall be awhile before mounting.
Now PM me your mailing address.
Please?

Ya had me worried bud so I checked mine is rotating the correct way. I thought I was going to have to go to the 150 for stability. Still will try a road 5. Gots some work to do on her but need to get into the twisties for testing. Since the rear tire is smaller diameter the the max yet the center line is still higher then the front axle center line. Hopefully I will not notice it since it feels as quick to turn as the max and a 140 yet stable at higher speeds. Not that I'm looking for warp speed just nice control everywhere. I have some comparing and learning to do plus well I wanted to see if the mileage claim holds up on the H50'S. While not giving up anything in the twisties :)

I'd bet that the Road 5 on the front is superior to all others.

Might be but I'm in a position to test the H50 mileage claim. Oh and I'll get the chance to ride some of the same roads I road with the Max and the cobra 140. I can already say stability at higher speeds improved.
