Well, I have about 1500 miles on the Michelin Road 6GT now and I am still happy with them. Bike handles as it should now and no signs of wear yet.

Done only 500 or so miles on my 6GTs and really like them, time will tell on wear !.

What kind of milage did you get on the 6GT's?

To be honest I’ve not ridden it much and not at all come the winter. I am noticing the front is squaring off a bit though much sooner than expected. Handling is still good.

I just replaced Mi Pilots. I installed Kenda KM1's and am enjoying response and predictability that I did not have before. I've read KM1's will go over 10k miles, but I'll be happy if they match the Pilots at half that.

I rode them hard, but was a little shocked that they wore out that quickly right down to the cords.

Hi,
That tyre looks odd, it does not look to be worn as flat as the the R5 i have just taken off at almost 8k !
