tire mileage

[2wheelingdawg]

how many miles can i expect to get out of the Metzler Z6's that came on the bike when it was new. Right now i got a little over 7000 on them and the rear still looks pretty good.

Just replaced the rear tire at 9100 miles. Remember when you change the tire, do the driveshaft maintenance!! Warchild has a great set of instructions at the following link.

I have an 07' and the pictures looked just like the one Warchild took.

Although this has been beaten to death, keep a close eye on the rear. Z6's will **look** good one minute and be at cord the next. Both my front and rear were toast at 6800 miles...

Thanks, i remember reading something about the rear ends being light on the grease or something.

Watch that rear, one day it looks great the next-cords. Only on a Z6
