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.

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)...
