Re: [ST] Brakes and Tires, Again!

I got 5,000 out of my last Pilot road rear. That was with a lot of 2 up riding on a Sprint.  My front had 7,000 on it when I took it off last week.  Both tires were into the wear markers but not bald.

A friend with a Hiyabusa routinely gets about 7000 out of the
Pilot Roads, if that helps you at all.  I have a set of them on
order for the next replacement on the 'bird, when the Pirelli
Diablos wear out (soon - they are only going to last about 4000).
