Original tires lasted the longest at 5466 miles, they always seem to when the bike is brand new.
Set #2 at 4594
Set #3 at 2036 - needed new ones for 5 days of track time (all within 8 days)

Up to this point I had always put the OEMs back on (Bridgestones), but for #4 they were no longer available. I stuck with Bridgestone but chose the BT014.

Set #4 at 1582 - another 4 days of straight track time

I tend to run lower pressures in them so I don't get as much life out. I'd rather have the grip and sacrifice some life. About once a year I get new tires. Thankfully I can get them pretty cheap. I do a bulk order with a group of friends/co-workers so we get a wholesale discount.
