looks like I will be needing a front tyre soon on my 2021 R1250 GSA.. best to change as pair or just the front? on the o.e.m tyres which are the BATTLAXE A41'S rear seems to last very well and is less than half worn.. but the front is just under 3mm my GSA is on 3,600 miles now.. I prefer to change my tyres at 3mm.. been happy with the BATTLAX A41's in wet and dry weather.. ok I'm no racer as I'm a old git now but do like a spirited ride now again and up to now can't fault the o.e.m tyres.. so got 2 choices just replace the front with another BATTALAX A41 or replace both tyres.. although I found the BATTLAXE A41'S tyres to be fine I know there are better tyres out there.. what tyres are you guys fitting? been doing some research I'm I right in thinking the Michelin Road 6 and the Pirelli Angel GT2 tyres are the most popular as replacement over BATTALAX A41'S tyres for best grip/wear/less tyre noise in wet/dry weather or should I consider other makes of tyres.. thought best to ask the guys who ride the the R1250 GSA and there thoughts on tyre choice.
P.S before the R1250 GSA I had the Versys 1000/GTR1400/ZZR1400 always went through 2 rear tyres to one front.. the R1250 GSA seems to be the other way round! I'm not over heavy on the brakes so is this just the nature of the beast
