Not many straight roads in New England. Most of the worthwhile bike roads probably evolved out of goat paths...they parallel rivers or go up and down hills and mountains. Lots of braking preparing for the turns and roll on throttle to power out of turns. Eats up tires.Horst said:only 6,000 miles on BT020's ... ???

LOL - I squeezed just over 12,000 miles out of my 020s front and rear before replacing them last week with Pilot Roads. If I get the same out of the Roads I'll be pleased. I don't usually hot rod around, though I do on occasion. I did ride quite a few days this past winter below 50 degrees, too. Most of my riding is city stuff - I don't ride very aggressively around town - too many cagers waiting to nail me!ST_Jim said:I don't understand how anyone could make one last 10,000 miles unless they never twist the throttle hard and temps never exceed 50 degrees...:
