How long did your OEM rear tyre last
 

Miles to KMS.

Times miles by 1.6

My first OEM rear lasted me 700 miles then it squared out.

700 ???? ... my ctr is showing 5400 km or cca 3400 miles and still running on original tyre, with no reason of renewing it

Had my new bike a week now and will be very dissapointed if i only get 700miles out of it.

I got around 3000miles out of my first tyre (XT660R Spirac) now on my 3rd at using metzlar tourance which seems to be a very good tyre... I have done around 1000 miles with no real squaring off.

hmm where do you live the US?? only straight roads or something??

ok...post the letter to yamaha company to improve next version of XT by installing an inclinometer...reason: to realize squaring-out of rear tyre or whatever

I have 3500 Km on my odo now. Has started to search for replacement as the back wheel will pass still approximately 500 kilometers. What to choose from below listed:
P.Diablo
M. Pilot Road
or ...?

My OEM rear lasted 7000km. Got 10,000 out of the OEM front (exact opposite wear pattern to my R6 that was much harder on the front...)

I've changed to Mich Pilot Roads, and I've got 14,000km out of my second rear so far (i.e. double OEM).

(And yeah, I'm just commuting)...

my xtr oem back 18,000,oem front 20,000 when i changed it stil had alot off tread but had started cracking :wave:

What were your oems? - mine are Siracs and the rear is near shot at 3000 km.

i have seen this term being used in this forum and ithought it ment original tyre chain when the bike waz new.......:icon_scratch: if i have it wrong please explain..

oem means original equipment manufacturer - that is the third party manufacturer who supplied Yamaha with the original equipment - in this case the tyres - they could be one of several different tyres fitted as 'standard' in different places.

ithought everybody got the same mine were sirac and ifitted them again ...very happy with them:HappyRoll_ANPIUI:

I obviously need to lose weight 'cos I'm going to have to change mine before I see 4000 km. :sad8:

3k back 5k front from OEM Diablos

I have Pirelli mtr-01 + 02 on my new bike has anyone else got or used these and what sort of milage did you get off them please.
Thanks,Andy

Front, about 2000 miles, rear, about 1000.

My 660XTX is up to 6000km and both tyres still look and perform ok....

Changed my Pirelli Dragons at 2000 miles = 3200 km.
Horrible in damp, wear out WAAYYY too fast!! Pilot Road 3s done over 1500 miles so far, with almost no sign of wear. Excellent in cold/damp - hardly need to warm them up!

OEM rear Tourance 11,000 km... Highish pressure on-road seems to be the go ie 37psi.
Next Tourance 1700km. A sharp rock busted the carcass. Annoying.

Lol mine lasted maybe 250 miles. Looked rather new when I bought the bike, went on it to work one night and when I was leaving in the morning after a night of -5/6 degrees Celcius, I hit a patch of ice and as my tyre span up on it, it ended up going down to the stitching inside. Then when I went to get it replaced, I found out the OEM tyres for the XTX have been discontinued apparently so I ended up with a Pirelli Corsa on the rear and OEM on the front. No complaints about it though, feels even better than the OEM rear.

OEM�s on my �08 Tenere were Metzeler Tourances and lasted almost 20.000km.... After three sets of Tourances(each around the same mileage), I switched to Heidenau K60 Scouts, now already 15.000km�s and still not shot.....Great tyres too, imho better then the Tourances.

oem mileage
 

OEMs on my 2011 tenere (Metzeler Tourance) at 15000klm (rear-all gone, front- 5% left). great road tire (wet or dry) and on hard pack dirt (dry only). sand clay wet grass ~ forget abouditt!!
trying the k6o scouts next up
