How many miles do you go on 21in front tire.

Post by truckerjay »

I recently changed my folk oil and noticed that my front tire is cupping a little bit. My sister in law had them put on before she started riding it so not sure but something like 9000 miles on them. Michelin commander 2 they cost more but with that much milage out of them its worth it

9000 out of a front tire is not good mileage. Cupping is usually caused by low tire pressure.
I can't seem to win the lottery. I think I have used up all of my good luck riding motorcycles.
