12 to 13k on a rear??  That sounds like a tire I need to try, since most
of my miles are commuting as well!  

Thanks!

I've used them for about the last 40 k on my '01 ST.  I like them, they
grip well and they last well.  I am primarily a commuter and in that
style of driving I've been averaging about 12 to 13k with the Conti Road
Attacks.  I don't get aggressive in wet conditions, but they seem to
grip pretty well in wet conditions.  Much better than the stock BT57's!

I've also worn my AV46 down to near the wear bars.  And after some
research, talking to some knowledgeable people in the tire testing and
distribution fields, I've decided to give the Continental RoadAttack a
try on the rear.  Has anyone tried the RoadAttack yet here on the list?

Yes!

Got back from a nice weekend trip with the wife, and have less than 
1/16" to the wearbars on my AV46 rear.  For those interested, it has 
approx. 7k miles on it.

Looking at replacing it with the Storm, but wondered if others had any 
opinions on that tire yet.  Looks like I can get it for about $150 from 
SWMoto (inc. shipping, as I only need a rear).  Any other good prices 
from reputable shops?

(Don, I'll be contacting you when I actually get the tire.  Just let me 
know what kind of brew you want...)
