    Im really surprised at the low ks you get from tyres. My PR3s have about 4800ks on them with very little wear. Guess your roads are much rougher? I hear of people getting up to 20000ks out of PR2s up here.

    Even my old Bandit did better than that but it did have the suspension sorted over the stock mushy crap.

    Yep, the SI'ers get a double whammy. Roads eat tyres faster and tyres generally cost more.

    Our roads are very rough grit - like sandpaper to rubber! Those North Island roads are like a racetrack to a South Islander!

    The only bonus is we get to try new rubber more often!
