Wow that's about 15000kms!  I'm at 5000km and doubt I will get 8000km out of the rear.

I'm @ only 4500 miles and almost to the wear bars. Not sure why such poor mileage from this tire. I have done no burnouts, but it has been through the Tail of the Dragon 4 times, as well as a lot of curvaceous mountain roads. 

Also I had it dyno- tuned. Not sure if while on the dyno, would have caused xtra wear.

Last I checked Metzeler did not produce the front tire (130-21)

I am interested in any suggestions about tires for this bike.

I received this reply back from Metzeler.  Looks like it will be here in about 6 months or so.

Sorry but we do not offer the front size and we will be testing many new bikes like yours in the future. So please check back with us in January. Have a great weekend.
