So, how long would you guys roll on a front tire that's at the wear bars?

The rear is fine. Cause I'm cheap and it still sticks fine.

On a bike?

Depends.  Front Conti on my Monster is scrubbed to buggery on the right side, but still got life in the centre and left. Must need to ride my favourite local roads from the opposite direction for a while  ;D.

Later Carlos.
