Oh, it's difficult to remember now, as I did tend to do a fair bit of mixed riding... but I would say you should get around 4000-5000 miles from the rear (I'd say 4000 is about max if you've any hope of them being still good off road, but you'll get another 1000 on road still), and 7000-8000 on the front until they are similarly worn.
Like most knobblies on road, the front tyre blocks tend to wear alternately (typically due to the braking forces I understand), but they are still pretty comfortable even at 7000+ miles, even if they look a bit like cogs. They are certainly not as bad as pukka enduro tyres in that respect.
Also, even when the rear is squared off (as they were when I arrived at Deal's Gap), they are still very predicable... as others have said, the Tenere ought to come with these as an OE fitment in my opinion - I'd say they are the definitive dual-sport tyre for this bike...
