> Look into the Bridgestone Battleax BT16s, they have three seperate compounds on the tread from hardest in the center to softest at the edges. I have prob almost 3500 miles on mine so far including two track days and they still have plenty of life left on em. Not to mention they grip like a bastard.

yeah I was looking at those and some other dual compound tires and got the M3’s at a great deal, and they were soft all around. I dont take it out much but when I do I would rather loose 1kmi worth of treadwear than go down again.

If I sold the motard and got street bike made for long highway rides 110% would be running a dual compound tread like the battleax’s. your def correct.
