Abnormal tyre wear?

[FJmonkey]

If it helps make your decision any easier, consider that Capn Ron has taken his tires all over the USA and across Canada. His trip can be enjoyed by his epic post of when he rebuilt his FJ and rode to see his dad for his 80th birthday.

G'day,

I realise this topic may inflame a few, it is not intended to though.  I just replaced my front tyre on my FJ1100, I only got 12,500kms off her.  A BT45.  What are other Aussie riders using?  I figure to put the question here to get a good sample of the tyres available to Aussie riders.  I ride country roads, no gravel.  usually I ride everyday to work and back.  The tyre pressure I use is 34psi front, 36psi rear.

Anyone get better mileage than me?

Cheers, Gareth

G'day,

Thanks for the offer, it would be great to update the bike with a whole front end, only trouble is I have a "fresh out of the oven" child, and he comes with an amzing expence account...  I thought Lily was high maintenance!

I appreciate the offer, but I have no spare cash to speak of..

There would be plenty of takers on the board though...

Cheers, Gareth
