Bugger me, !2k is alright
I'm running lasertechs on the front of mine and I've never done better than just over 7k
I managed to get 13k out of a set of avon venoms but I much prefer the feel of the lasertechs.

Yup, Lazertecs wear pretty fast but they are grippy, I stopped using them on the old bike cos they were so unstable once they started to wear a bit. Bridgestone BT-45's were the best bias plys I found, longer wearing, dual compound and cheaper than lazertecs
The pirellis are just showing some wear now but should be good for another 5k.

Hmmmm, but did they give you the confidence of the Lasertechs,if they did I may consider them next time.
I run bridgestones under my car and luv them,but never heard anything good about there bike tyres.

Yup, lazertecs were factory fitment on my old vx800 but after switching to bridgestones I wouldn't go back. At first they feel about the same but I found the metzlers developed a mind of their own after only about 3000ks. The rear was the problem more than the front. bridgestones felt better for at least twice as long.

I think you may be a little lost.

Maybe if I stopped checking what you're up to out on the coast this wouldn't have happened.
All your fault for being so entertaining...
