Finally, a rear tire for the ST1300 that you can put some miles on and still have performance. I'm no speed demon in the twisties but I will sometimes push beyond a moderate pace and the rear 880 did a great job sticking to the road.
After 5,200 miles the tire looks like it might have 50% life left which is very acceptable to me given all the other tires I've had showed considerable wear at the 5, 6 and 7k marks and had to be replaced shortly thereafter.
I saw dond's 880 and I believe he said it had 8k on it, still looked good.
