I haven't gotten more than 1600 miles out of a rear period and even then it took a Road Smart to manage that,I use a Sport Smart on the front.

In 8000 miles it's done 4 fronts and 6 rears including the one that's on.

Oh I forgot the rear brake lever!! You can ajust it so all you have to do is breath on it and you can lock it solid which gives you a huge amount of control.

Oh and the front brake I put a radial brake lever and an EBC disc on.

Tail tidy? Look on eBay.

And if anyone ever puts an Ohlins shock and a proper pair of Marchesinis on here I'm all ears.
