what kind?

What kind of tires did your bike come with and how long did they last? Mine come with dunlops and only got about 4500 out of them and they where bald in the middle.

Re: what kind?

Thats about right for the dunlops.
Bridgestones are lasting 7-9000 some a little higher.

Re: what kind?

My '07 came with Bridgestones. I just replaced the front at 10,700 miles, put a Michelin Pilot Road on. The rear picked up a nail at 3,000 miles and I replaced it with Michelin Pilot Road, which now has 7,000 miles and more than 1/2 of the tread still remaining.
