Just ordered a set of the T30 replacement .... the T31. Have heard no chatter at all about these. Has anyone any experience with them? Jake Wilson with a $50 rebate.

Let me know if you GET your rebate. Been over a year, many inquiries, NO RETURNED REBATE. I'll never buy any tires w/rebates ever again. They better just take it OFF then....or I'll hunt for a new Distributor/Seller. :-/

I didn't know about the the T31 until your post about it. It wasn't too ago that they announced the T30 EVO GT. I have a set of T30s with GT specs on my ST1300 and I really like them. I previously had a set of Michelin Pilot Road 4s and I liked them too. The specs on the T31 GTs sound really good. I would like to hear your review when you get them on.

Dean, you must have plans for many miles this year, I know you have 8k-10k on the tires you have on your bike now.

I got 7,500 km on the T30, 10,000 km on the T30 EVO and I'm about 3,000 km into a set of Z6's. As I have a new set of Avon's on the shelf I'm set for awhile and will wait to hear how the T31 works out in terms of ride and longevity. I think the T30 and the T30 EVO are great tires, just a bit short lived for my liking.

Check out the Brit magazine "Ride" available online. In the latest issue they do a comparison test of all sport touring tires available today.

Any way you could attach a link to the article ? All I get are offers to buy the magazine. Funny, the cover layout sure looks similar to RIDER :)

THANKS!

They're for the garage Ron, so as not to have a repeat of last Octobers scramble to find a tire.

I just looked at my 2010's rear tire, it's getting down there. I also know that if I get the 2004#2 back on the road for my commutes, I'll be replacing it's tires too (I have the 2012 OEM Bridgestone tires on it and only getting maybe 7,500 miles out of them).

I have at least one set of new PR4s in storage, and I'll probably go with another set of PR4s since I get an easy 10K miles out of them for my commutes!

I bought the tires, They are good for the way I ride with good mileage and the price was right. I got the rebate via a visa card right away after submitting the form. Easy and a good deal. I would keep buying and running them for this price.

Not sure why they are upside down and I can't seem to fix it
Try finding an app or program for your platform that strips out EXIF data from your pics. Do that before uploading your pics and see if that helps. It did for me.

As far as these pics go I just downloaded them and flipped them rightwayround. Thanks for the info.

You are welcome.
I'm not quite sure what the technical stuff means but I'll do a bit of research, thanks.

I've not had any problem with Bridgestone rebates, 2 x for the bike and once for the cage ride.
