how long do you guys typically get out of a rear tire?
conditions: fairly newb rider, so chicken strips. also, mostly commuting, so center wearing out faster.
I've got ~5400 miles and I'm not quite down to the wear indicator, but I'll probably be there in the next 1500 or so.

also...

In my opinion...

The vast majority of American sport bike or naked bike riders would be better served with ST tires.

i'm on bt-45s, so sport touring. guess i'm not too far off in terms of wear. I'll probably make it to the end of the season on my current tire, then put a new one on for next season.
