I squeezed 9K out of the original tyres. However, I was touring, fully loaded and the riding was steady constant speeds on various road types, covering around 400 miles a day for 8000 of those miles.

Both front and rear were completely shot to bits by the end. The second set lasted some 5K, if I remember right. I haven't run a Tourance for a number of years now, so this info might be time expired!
