[QUOTE="RossKean, post: 1423692, member: 19880"] I am finding that the fronts outlast the rears by a fair margin. About two fronts to three rears. I would say that your front still has a way to go (but not an 8500 km trip). If you change your own tires, I would definitely keep it as a "take-off" for local riding or to finish out a season. Nothing quite like starting out a trip on brand new tires. I will be interested in seeing how your Road 5's last (Michelin dropped the "Pilot" from the name). From what I have read, the "GT" version was originally supposed to be available in 2019 but I haven't heard anything more - no published release date. I will stick with the Roadsmart 3's until the GT version of the Road 5 is available. Michelin does not recommend the non-GT version for heavier ST bikes. [/QUOTE]
