K100RS 16v: Whats your favorite front tire?

[BoardOfCan]

There's no bike I like more than a K, and of the 3 I've had the current 1991 16v K100 is the winner.
HOWEVER!
It's no secret these have unique wear characteristics on the front wheel. As Johnny probably says "Thes just hows it wears a fronts tior". Bud Provin seems to agree. I'm at about 3000 miles on the current tire and it's almost at the wear bars - plenty of pressure, new fork seals, good head bearing, aligned well. 3000 seems very, very low for not a soft, sticky supersport rubber. And so I put it out to the community of you folks: if you mitigate front tire wear, how? What's your favorite tire to put on? And how many miles are you getting out of yours?

I mitigate front tire wear by wearing out the rear first. Rears on my K1100RS get up to 9K before they hit the wear bars and I replace the front (which hasn't) at the same time

Bridgestone T32. I run them on all of my Ks. K75s, K100, K1100LT, K1, K1100RS. I run the GT version for heavier bikes on my K1600GT. You might guess that they are my favorite tire.

PSI: 34 front 38 rear, 36 front 40 rear if loaded up for touring.

Bridgestone often has rebates if you buy a pair (a prepaid Visa card they send you.)

Have a Dunlop Roadsmart 2 on mine,3,275ml and still 3.5mm tread(4.42mm new).Always run 38-40 psi,plenty of grip: there may well be better tires out there but had no reason to change.Rear Roadsmart 2 wearing quicker but at same miles 4.5mm(6.8mm new) so plenty of life left. Downside is UK tire prices have rocketted up in last 18mths.
