Bike has only got 5000k's on it and the tyre is U/S. Can any one suggest a harder compound tyre that will last longer? What tyres are other riders using?
You could try a Michelin Pilot Road 2 or Continental Road Attack.
Davo (RIP) from Far riders was getting 15,000klm (belt just about showing) and 13,000klm (still legal) respectively out of these tyres replace and fitted from my shop so I know first hand the milage.
Hope that helps.
