Tyres and Wheels / Re: Pirelli Tyre Spec for the Trophy

Yesterday, after succesfully completing an extremely hard ride (18 hours, nearly 16 of them riding acording to the bike's computer, half of them raining, even snowiing at certain point, and quite foggy), called "Route of the Penitents", that means more than 700 km around Spanish and French Pyrenees, including 20 mountain passes and more than 5.000 turns (as the organizers say, for sure I didn't count them), I discovered that my back GT is arriving to the end of it's life after only 7.000 km (I don't think it may last 1.000 km more), the front one still looks acceptable, but as I prefer to change both I'm in doubt, not sure if waiting for the front new A specification (whilst I can ride my other bike, a Bonneville) and continue with Pirelli Angel or switching to Michelin PR4 and see what happens 
i changed my first ST with about 7.000, then GT, for about 8.000, and now I'm not really sure if they may last 1.000 km more because in this área of Spain the asphalt is very abrassive, specially when heat, and summer is aproaching
I will ask the dealer
