    Good for you. I can get down on the pavement to look at the stuff, but need help getting up now. I have to leave my tire installs to others these days. We will be looking forward to hearing the wear data on the K2.

    Currently Owned: 2019 F3 Limited, 2020 F3 Limited: SOLD BOTH LIMITEDS in October of 2023.

    Previously : 2008 GS-SM5 (silver), 2009 RS-SE5 (red), 2010 RT-S Premier Editon #474 (black) 2011 RT A&C SE5 (magnesium) 2014 RTS-SE6 (yellow)

    MY FINAL TALLY: 7 Spyders, 15 years, 205,500 miles

    IT HAS BEEN A LONG, WONDERFUL, AND FUN RIDE.

    I got 12,000 on my 1st rear tire. Replaced with OEM Kenda. Still had tread on the 1st tire but was down to wear bars and was going to do a couple of 3-4 day rides so did not want to push it. I think I will get 14,000 to 16,000 on the front tires.

    That's my story as well, and look forward to the report on the kanine's, the price is very right if there is improvement.

    Yeah, my old basketball knees are complaining more and more strenuously above getting up and down under the Spyder, biker. If these new Kanines turn out to be good, (and it’s looking hopeful so far), I’ll be using a dealer to install them next time.
