Alphadog on his Hyosung 650 has over 50,000 miles on it, according to the review.   That's good enough for me!

What the hell is it made out of, diamond?

Well, I'm no alphadog, but this was the stock tire on my 695 and I got 8k+ out of a rear (twice) and I think like 15k out of the front.

I would seriously doubt that the hyosung (chinese pos) would last 50k.

my mates hyosing lasted a whole 2 years and 6k before it died of shitmess

Korean, not Chinese.

Hyosung was the actual manufacturer of Suzuki SV650's. For the money, their products are not at all bad.

Who cares about Hyosungs? The BT56 while not the absolute best tire for hard cornering & braking, isn't too bad either and its a pretty good price. Seems like I got around 5K or so out of a couple of rear tires in the past. That was on a 996 too. It has a hard center compound so it gets a little bit squirmy under hard braking, but its great if you have to do the slab often.

I had a Hyosung dealer tell me that they were the original builder, for Suzuki, of the SV650 engine.   I'm not sure if that is correct or not.   For the record, I had and SV, it was a really fun bike to ride.   Did wheelies like you wouldn't believe.  Even easier than the S4.
