I will be getting my Ultra Classic in a month or two, I was just wondering what kind of miles I can think about getting out of the stock Dunlops, D402s. I will be having wide white wall tires put on the Ultra, like the ones that come on the Road King, before I take it home. Is 10,000 miles out of the question? My riding will be mostly two up, I will keep max. air in the tires. Thanks for any opinions on this:)

Thank you HIPPO :cool: I had a 1988 Wing but for the love of me, I can't think what kind of miles I got out of them tires in 44,000 miles :confused: Do you think the Dunlop Elite IIs are a better tire than the stock Ultra tire? Mileage wise, I mean.

My new bike will only be driven on smooth roads;) :cool: My mileage will very, i'm sure :) I was allways a stickler on tire P.S.I. We just put tires on the wifes car today, she got 76,000 miles out of them and they were only rated at 50,000 mile tread life:p Again, thank you:)

Chuck, the tires are going to be a even trade out. So all I will spend is two hours labor the service department said = $100. I just thought that the wide white walls would look kind of good:cool: I guess if I get 10,000 miles on the rear, I should feel good about that:)
