2006 599, original rubber Bridgestone BT56's. At 8000 miles, the rear tire is WAY past the wear bars and getting replaced. The front tire has AT LEAST another 4K miles left in it. I ride fairly conservatively.

I replaced the rear tire with an Avon AV56 Storm. The Brits seem to have good luck with this tire. Good wet and dry traction and very good mileage, somewhere north of 12K miles. We'll see.
