[Ducati] Mileage on B'stones...

[HOPPER ELDRIDGE]

Peter, can't really say how many miles I ve gotten on the '020's but it'd be near 8k on the rears and significantly more on the fronts. The BT56SS's were fantastic but you can only get the BT56 now. Have one on the front now and it barely looks worn and it's been on there for about a year and a half...about 10k miles. 
   
  I've played with the 010's on the rear but they go away fairly fast but no way near as fast as the Pilots. On the front they tend to cup after the miles add up. Tried a Conti Force but it blistered and bubbled and had slow leaks when it was well worn in. Won't go there again!!!
   
  As to the 020's. you'll be real happy with them. I put about 8K or more miles per year on the Duc so mileage is more important than super grip and down here on the coast there are few curves that are of interest (well except those on the beach!). Mostly straight lines. When I hit the Hill Country, they do grip well. And they're good in the wet..as this year has well proven!
   
  Go for 'em...Hopper
