Better mileage tires?

Archren · 06-09-2009, 03:57 PM

I have Pirelli Dragon Supercorsa Pro tires on my Duc.. surprisingly, they've lasted 5600 miles so far, and I still have a fair bit of tread on them. They have excellent stick (although I imagine I probably don't ride as aggressively as you, so YMMV). They are pretty pricey, though...

Whatever the current equivalent of the Bridgestone BT-20's would probably be a good bet if you want mileage and reasonable stickiness.. I got about 10k miles out of those tires and did lots of rides in the twisties without any problems.. but then that was nearly 6 years ago. Dunno how well the current generation of BT-20 tires works...
