I'm not sure why this post exists. I don't care about the Pirellis... Please stay on topic or maybe create your own thread...

Any feedback on the Bridgestone Battlax T31 vs. the Bridgestone Battlax T31 GT? Supposedly the GT is for heavier bikes, the C14 isn't a lightweight that's for sure.

I tend to keep pressures around 38-40psi solo, and closer to 42-45 loaded.

That has been my experience also, since I got the bike new. Currently on the fourth set of tires from three different brands. The front always wears faster than the rear.
Kzz1king said:Is this front wear because of riding style and/or the fact you are able to do the majority of your riding in the twisties? I get close to 2 rears to a front but only get about 1500 miles in the mountains every 7000. I try but I know I dont attack the curves like many of you.
I thought having suspension set up properly was supposed to extend wear?
