(Scar @ Jul. 11 2007,01:03) Well, as it turns out, it's time to get new 'shoes' on my bike.  Last time I went in for an oil-change and tires, was on 5/21/07; odometer reading:  6607.  Today I made an appointment for another service and new tires, as I have efficiently reached that point...with a surprising 11,508 miles reading.

From 5/21 to 7/11, is 51 days; of these, I was on business travel for 9 of them, leaving 42 days to ride the rubber off those tires.

4893 miles divided into 42 days = an average of 116.5 miles per day.  Many of these days were spent driving my truck instead of the bike, so I'm sure the average is conservative...I'm not trying to pin this too much to the wall; just saying...

I love my bike so very very much.

Dang dude.....how the heck can you get that many miles out of a sport tire???

I'm lucky to get 2500-2800.....and no, they are not squared off in the center...


Good for you doing that many miles in a short period of time!

wish I could get out that much........

Thanks, sir. I wish you could get out riding this much, as well. I wish that for everyone.
