Everyone please resond with total miles on darkside
OK, I'm working on gathering some stats as there are unbelievers out there (no shocker right!) anyway, I was talking to another RiderCoach and he is still having a hard time believing it is safe. I figured if we could all post how many darkside miles we have I could total the number up and show that among our site we have XXX,XXX miles ridden in total safety on car tires.
So, please post with your milage and I'll start adding them up.
As for me I have a measly 4,500 miles so far.

Re: Everyone please resond with total miles on darkside
Not really sure, but its some where between 10 and 12k
Three different tires, 165 then went to 185, broke a belt and bent rim, hit firewood in road, had to burn up a mc tire for about 8k , and now the 205.

As of right now...right at 25700ish...15k on the Dayton 165r15 and the diff on the MIchelin HydraEdge 205/65/16...and it's still almost new looking.
Hard to do a burn out with the 205...keeps pushing the front end out or trying to wheelie.

Been darkside (Sonar, 40.00 tire) for 4 months and I've got 6000 miles on mine, plus the 1000 that Insp484 put on it before I got it from him. this includes talamena, the dragon and cherohala and lots more.

About 5,000 for me. Thunderstorms this morning and I was more worried about the front tire slipping than the back.

Re: Everyone please resond with total miles on darkside
I put dynabeads in mine before I went on vacaton, and I'm still undecided about them. I guess I was hoping some noticable difference in the ride. I probably won't get that until I break down and change bearings and springs.
