Looks pretty bald to me in the center since all I do is pile straight miles on. Is this ready to be retired? Please excuse the dirt, I have not cleaned it after yesterday's ride.
It’s always easier to spend someone else’s money lol.I like what @Bobby914 says, and agree when I can afford to, but personally, being constantly broke, I'd put another 500 on it and then decide

Look for the wear bars...from what I can see by the photos, you aren't quite at them yet...Looks pretty bald to me in the center since all I do is pile straight miles on. Is this ready to be retired? Please excuse the dirt, I have not cleaned it after yesterday's ride.

I can see the wear bars, they are hard to see though...I don't see any wear bars in the sipes. I have run mine until I see the carcass peeking through in one spot on the center. Probably not a smart thing to do but based on that, I'd say you're ok until you can order a new tire.
Only issue is I'm on a 240 so I don't think its available. I think im going to stick to the Pirelli Diablo or go to a Michelin Commander II....Pick up a PR series tire. Here‘s a new PR2 on my Z and the Dunlop it replaced.
Agree with kml go by the wear bars get a cheap $3 tire tread gauge from Walmart which is informative. Now Tached is not wrong either but I would start planning on saving for the new tire now since at the minimum safe limit & heavy high HP Busas will eat up tires fast near the end.Thanks guys. I think ill use as is for a little while until I get some more cash during a pay period and snag a new tire then. Appreciate all of the responses!
Hi. What was the least mileage you have gotten from a rear tire on a bike used only on the street?Can't see the air in it yet. You're good...
