When I had my R6 the rear was done but the front still had lots of life it in. I didn't really like how it was wearing but it had more life in it. My dealer wanted over $350 from what I remember for another stock rear. I almost fell on my ass when I heard the price. They had a deal on for close to the same price for a set of Michelins. I bought them and gave my rear to a guy I knew stunting an R6 but had a bald front tire.

I would look for a deal on a set before buying another stock tire. I was going to buy one because I thought it would be cheaper then buying a good set.
