I hit 40 yesterday... here's to another 40. I still can't stop smiling! And yes it was 80 degrees at 7:18 PM in middle TN yesterday.

That's cool but what I really like is 80 degrees. It's 45 and rainy here in Shitigan....

80 degrees, why the hell are you sitting in front of a computer Mister. You should be ashamed. There are those less fortunate here(like me) that have 40s and rain. You march right out there now and swing a leg over that thing and head for 41K. Happy Easter you lucky dog.

Congrats!

How many rear and front tires have you gone through at this point?
I do a lot of long distance traveling and need to plan ahead.
Thanks.

I was wondering the same thing. Liandra was purchased 10/24/2010 and has just over 7000 mi. Hope to go to Sturgis this year or do a 48 states in 10 days ride so will need to plan for tire replacement.

22,000 on the front, 15,000 on the rear (down to the wear bar, not slick).  I run 41 psi front and rear.  YMMV.

I got almost 15K miles on my first, 11+ on the second and 12+ on the third rear. 22+ on the first front and 15 on the second front. I had a ways to go on the last front tire but was putting on a new rear and decided to do both at 37,000. I would never have run that far on the first rear tire but was commuting a lot and riding straight and flat for the last 2-3K. I would never leave on a trip if I expected my rear tire to have more than 10-11K on it when I got back.

I run 41 rear 39 psi front.

I'm right behind you. I had 35,000.0 on my first Vision and about 4K on it's replacement.
