Got well over 10k out of all of the last sets of tyres I had on my SV doing 50 mile a day commutes and a wee bit of fun stuff too. I'll leave it for other people to gauge what sort of rider I am.

Pirelli Angel STs then GTs, followed by PR3s then PR4s. They were all pretty decent tyres but the PR3s were my favourites. The PR4s were good but I found them less confidence inspiring than the 3s and they seemed to wear in a slightly unpredictable way and then seemingly recover themselves - odd! That said, by the time the SV went at 75k the suspension was probably shot to hell so it may not be a fair comparison.
