The short answer is the BT-021So Stick, which one do you recommend??
Not to worried about your post. When someone says they got 7000 miles on a tire and someone else says they got 16000 from that same tire then I know it's rider habits (mostly). Some ride harder than others. What really matters is your experience with the tires you've tried yourself. I'm not really interested in internet stories.I remember the BMW guys talking about this tire, saying it didn't wear well. I just did a search on the BMWOA site, and found a reference to a R1150RT (600 lbs wet) that got 6600 miles to the wear bars on the front tire.
