7500 on the rear. My front has another 2-3000. I ride mostly twisties, and not slow. Just went darkside on the rear. Keeping the front for a few more miles then putting on a metzler 888
If you are not part of the solution, YOU are the problem.
Where the people fear the government you have tyranny. Where the government fears the people you have liberty.
I got 17,500 miles out of the stock stones. Always check you tire pressure to get the life out of your tires. 40 front 42 rear works for me. I installed the Dunlap elite 4. Really like them so fare.
Did you really get 20,768 miles on your rear tire?
I am at just over 20,000 miles and I only got 9500 miles on my first 2 back tires. I got 19,000 on my front.
I don't know what I am doing wrong I have the FOBO TPMS and keep the rear at 42psi and the front at 40psi.
Both rear tires were showing through to the belts at 9500 miles.
Maybe riding so fast is the problem / I average 75mph - 90mph on the highway and run fairly hard in the twisties.

7200 miles my rear OEM Bridgestone was finished right to the wear bars. So it really depends on how you ride your bike as to how long the rear tire lasts. Now the front one I did get 12700 miles out of so the rear one was somehow related to a right wrist problem I seem to have.
Now that's what I would call a ride about! Nice trip! How bout some pics of it though?

How do you guys get so many miles. I keep the tire pressure at 40 front / 42 rear. I have the FOBO TPMS and I get warnings when the tires are low.
Maybe I ride to hard??? I have a lot of highway miles because I ride 50 miles each way to work almost every day year round.
I got 9500 miles on the first tire / 9300 miles on the 2nd rear tire / I am at 270000 miles and I will need a new tire soon.
