I got 10K out of the original set and the rear was bald. I have 12K on the E3's I put on and they are down to 2/32 so it looks like I will probably get 14K out of these.

 

That's either some crappy tire or you have grossly over inflated it and have been towing some loads.

 

I've changed at 10k on three Lops. 401's, 150-16 rear.
20k on front 402, Lop also. will change out again at 40k when I do the forth rear.

At that time I will look at the Elite 3's... like the tread pattern better for tar snakes.

 

2008 Ultra got 9K out of the first rear, still got the original on the front 15K+. A friend has a 2009 Ultra, he just replaced front and rear at 15K.

 

Around 13k on the rear, changed out the front when I changed the second rear, that was at 23k. Probbly had another thousand or so but I didn't want to push my luck. All have been unlops.

 

16k on the rear of the Road King and it still has tread. I'm easy on them.

 

I've waited for someone to ask this. My '09 Ultra got a new rear at just under 17,000 miles, and at 24,500 I'm still on the original front. I have never had bike tires last this long. I complained when I heard there were no options for these expensive tires, but I've since decided I should shut the hell up.

 

About 10k for the rear.

 

Hell, I didn't know how some of you guys were getting such astounding mileage, especially on rear tires. First, I figured you were all Canadians or Europeans, and were talking KILOMETERS, but when I checked some of your origins it was obvious you were referring to MILES. Quite a mystery until I remembered that these phenomenal mileages were achieved on Harley-Davidson motorcycles, renowned for being underpowered to the point of being unable to get out of their own way. Mystery solved!

 

Dunlops, 10-12K on the rear, 20K+ on the front.
