I bought my 07 FZ-6 with 7,2xx miles on it previous owner was second owner,
He said that the first owner had put new tires on right before he bought it well that was 2010 Feb ish at 6200 miles,
i have rode the piss out of it 5k miles since march love the thing to hell but never noticed that the main tread of the tire is now starting to square off ( if that is what it is called) , its no longer round like the chicken strips all in all.
The second owner put just over 1k miles i have put just under 5k and i can imagine the 1st owner buying it 07 ( Jan model bike ) 6k from 07 to 10 put 2k a year so 8k total on the tires is my estimate.
My main question is when do you get new ones ( i measured its 2.2m at the lowest point in the tread, and 4.2 on the highest groves <--towards the chicken strips)
i can answer more questions if you have any but when do i replace or what is a major sign to replace? Thank you for reading look forward to your opinions
