No way I will get anywhere close to that mileage. Partly because the tire is likely a lot softer, and because I've been thrashing it around local gravel roads in TC2 with the throttle pinned. At 100 miles I can already see wear on the leading edge of the rear knobs. Cost was, well, too much. The local dealer I went though charged me 400 for the set. They are 130 for the rear and 120 for the front on motorcycle superstore. I'm not expecting the rear to last much past 2000 miles, but that is likely all the riding I'll get in with the long North Dakota winter approaching fast. I will be fitting some E-07s or K60s in the spring when I can start riding again.

And, because I have them, another picture.



One thing is for sure, they do look good.
