I could have gone another 500, but didn't feel like taking the chance at the time so I just put on a new tire. I have about 10,000 miles on the bike now, and the front is still looking OK. Hope that helps you.
that sounds reasonable...... although, most of my riding is sedate just riding to work and back. if i can get about 150 miles (240km) that would get me to work and back 2 and a half times...... not too shabby for the size of it. I currently get 3 days out of the Trophy.
