My ST1300 rides pics

Did a quick camping trip in Pennsylvania last weekend.


Rte 10, Cannonsville Reservoir,



Worlds End State Park,



One of those nice road that Penn State offers,



And then midway on the ride, the rear Avons Spirit (at 5,200 miles) started to feel ''mushy'' in the left corners, I made it home at a leisury pace. T-31 GT, will be installed this week.

Nice pics, thanks for posting.
Glad you had a nice trip.
I think you'll like the T-31 GTs.

Btw, my Bridgestones T-31's were toasted after this trip, next ones up will be PR4. ;-)

Why? How many miles did you get out of your T31's

 

[Enfo]

Hi, I've got 8787 km (5,300 mi) out of them T-31's GT.

Ohio's 535 not in a great shape road at this moment tho.

Hello Enfo

Are you not happy with 9000 km's from your tires? I went with the T31's just recently and I'll be happy with that mileage. What I find about tires, especially the PR4's is that they claim huge mileage and performance, but how many people plan a long trip and change them out prematurely? With my type of driving, I don't think I would notice a difference between the two, but I do notice the significant price difference. To be clear, safety is always my main concern.

Not bad mileage. Were the T-31s toast or did they have a little more mileage in them?

I would consider this very poor mileage. I recognize that we all have different driving styles, but...I got 12,000 miles out of my Pirelli Angel GT rear and almost the same on my Bridgestones...the only tires I got less than 6,000 miles out of were Dunlop RoadSmart

The front has a little left in it (1,500 to 2,000 km maybe) but the rear one has both sides like a "slick" tire.

So far on the ST, the tires have been like this for me:

Dunlop RS 3 : 9,452 KM
Avon Spirit: 9,166 KM
Bridgestons T-31: 8,787 KM

Michelin's will be next, I need to know since I'm planning a longer trip this fall.

A nice meal after a long ride with my Katoom riding buddy. ;-)
