Any Metzeler Sportec M3 fans here?
 
Curious what type of mileage anyone is seeing out of this tire?

I ran through 2 sets on my 900RR. I averaged about 6000 miles on them. My wife is running a pair oh her R1 that seem to be doing pretty good so far.

I had no issues with them. However all the M3's i've used and other people have used, seem to loose air. If you run them, get in the habit of checking the tire pressure at least once every two weeks.

had some on my 02 R1, the 190 rear looks more like a 180, got about 2,700 out of the front, about 2,100 on the rear

I have some on our Honda F4I they look great still after approx 1800 miles, but my wife put most of the miles on it and she does not ride aggressively.

I used the Sportec M1's for several years on my CBR. Neutral handling and very sticky. Not great in the rain, and they wear quickly. The Avons I use now are similar in handling, but are much better in the rain and get a little more mileage. But my CBR is quite heavy and the roads here are "tar and chip" which are pretty hard on tires.

Have found the M3 to be a confident tire in all kinds of conditions, including aggressive riding. 3000 miles was all I could get out of the rear.
