With all the talk about how few miles the Avon Storm and Azaro get, I was pleasantly surprised I have almost 11,000 on them. I rigorously check tire pressure (40 front, 42 rear) and weigh about 160 lbs. A mix of twisties and slab but I prefer twisties. At about 9,000 I started developing cupping on the rear but have held out in changing. The cupping is significant now and time for a change. The front has cupping but minor. Who says these Avons can't last long?! Greg H from Mass, Connie Droppers Anonymous Awards Dude COG# 7010,a Tracey CDA 120 (2.0) 99 Connie "Herrin Christabelle", 05 Ninja 250
