Just had a new set of Michelin Road 5's installed on the NC today, but thought I'd post how previous tires have stood up for ME on this bike..2021 NC 750X DCT
73 year old male year 'round rider, 190 pounds, 100% riding solo, 100% standard riding mode, mostly 45-60 mph, country curvy roads in good condition
my last set of tires, Pirelli Angel GT's lasted 8,326 miles
the Shinko Raven 09's before that went 6,478 miles
the Pirelli Angel GT's before that went 7,696 miles
the Michelin R5's before that went 8,579 miles
and the original Metzler Tourance's went 7,130 miles
BTW still on the original rear brake pads @ 38,199 miles and the tech said I probably had another 10K miles of material there (which astounded me)
The front pads were replaced at 23,405 and they still have plenty of pad left too.
