Hi there, Just wanted to post this, I have just changed out my factory Metzler Tires on our 2020 R1250RT at 10,500 kms with Kenda KM1 Sport Tires. Had this done at Kelowna Power Sports. Fairly disapointed with the mileage from the original tires as the rear was worn down to the steel cords. Most of the mileage was with two up riding. Will keep you posted on how the Kendas perform.

Hi Rick.  
I recently put some Kenda's on my R100RT.  Probably a very different tire from yours.  Mine are bias ply and I assume yours are radial.  So far I'm pretty happy with them, but I only have about 3000 km on them but the wear so far is minimal and even.  

The only bad thing I've noticed is that they seem very sensitive to the tar snakes on the road.  That may be the bias ply.  

Keep us posted on the performance on your R1250RT.  

Cheers, Wayne
