Good point. The tigger is the first bike I've had that wears the front's slightly quicker than the rears ! It puts a horrible chamfer on the sides of the front tyres, causing some 'odd' steering sensations. It's a common trait as they are a bit front heavy (or just piggin' heavy full stop). I've had other large & heavy adventure bikes but none eat a front tyre like the tiger does. My former Guzzi Stelvio used to be rather partial to destroying a rear tyre, often in less than 3,000 miles... The tiger get's around 4,000 miles out of a set, although on the forum some folks are getting 9,000 miles ? Must never use the throttle past 10% ?
