Hi Guys....
As I am considering all the preparations i will need for WDW over the winter period... luggage, clothing etc... and my thought came to my tyres... what kind of miliage can i expect to get from my 1100Evo... (only done 1200 since new.):p.. i am thinking i should put on a new pair for the WDW trip... will i need some more when i get back too?

If you ride it hard you will see them off in 2500 - 3000 miles, but if you cruise along you could get as many as 7000 miles. Everyone to their own on that one I think.

I've killed my rear Diablo Rosso II in 2400 miles. The front's is still good though, so it'll be one of the same for me. They're great tyres though...

I've been wondering about putting a set of Angel STs on next. I had them on my ZZR1400 and they were superb...

Why not use Michelin PR3's? You'll get to WDW and back again and still be able to go scratching on them for the rest of the Summer. :woot: :eyepopping:

My original Bridgestone BT016 lasted about 5/6 thousand miles of no grip winter/spring riding.

The Michelin Pilot Road 3 I have now are awesome in the wet. In the dry they're slightly slower to turn in than the BT016, but it's not a problem. At least they actually grip the road when it's less than 15 degrees, unlike the BT016. As for longevity mine have now done about 6,000 miles of mostly long distance riding and there's still enough life left in them to get me through winter.

I would see how worn tyres are a few weeks before Misano run, and make the decision on replacements then..

..unless you have a crystal ball
