2nd times the charm

[Maddog]

So, I was needing a new front tire. I stopped in my sons scoot shop "Ruckhouse" in Orlando. I see a new Michelin power sitting off to the side. It's an exact match to the tire needed. It is however an exact match to a tire that I ultimately sent back due to unfavorable ride. See my previous post "Michelin Power".
Yeah, 1and1/2 years ago I ditched this tire and ran the OE Bridgestone.
Trouble is, this tire wore in a cupped pattern and that noise drives me crazy.
So I mount this Michelin power up and it rides like a dream. Not to mention it cost me nothing cause those ruckus guys won't touch a tall tire like this.
I'm glad to have spent time mounting this tire and solving a mystery surrounding my scoot and Michelin tires. Just need to have it spin balanced to be sure it won't cup out early.
I figure I'm getting 12-15 k miles on fronts, is this average? 250cc reflex with lots of highway miles?
