I got 13k out of my stock Dunlop rear. Front still had plenty of tread but was cupped and vibrating so I changed both out at 13k. Metzler 880's now.

It also depends on how you ride, where you ride and so forth.

If i remember correctly my rear stock I got about 10 - 11K and front a little more.

I plan on putting Michelin Commander ii on my new wheels.

Thanks folks, the dealer told me I needed tires and I have under 6000 on the bike (I know, I need to get it out of the garage more).

I thought it didn't sound right...
