After reading the reports on fitting Bridgestone T31 tires on K-bikes, I bought a pair. I'm now in the process of changing them out for their replacement. I liked their performance; they made the bike handle as if it had lost 100 lbs. However, they have surprised me in ways I never anticipated. The front and rear tire wear at virtually the same rate. In the past I've replaced two rear tires before one front was knackered. That was my experience on other motorcycles. Now, at about 10 k miles I am again fitting T31 tires on both ends of the bike. Is this typical of this tire? A second surprise is the wear pattern of the front tire. It's badly cupped. Any thoughts on what caused that condition?
