      Seems like Avon has concentrated all the manufacture of tires for the motorcycle sector, in Wiltshire (UK), in the Melksham plant.

        Well, after 15.000Km/9320ml I cannot but praise this tires.
        Rear tire, had a 0,76mm thread left on the central part, and 2,75 where left on the front one, out of an average 5,7mm when new.







        Only notice was, a moderate cupping on the trailing edge of the rear tire thread, to probably blame on the extension damping -or lack of it- of the shocks.




        What tires i choose this time around?

          Lorenzo, thanks for the diligence in updating this thread with your experience. And, 9300 miles in a year is worth commending as well
