You need a dual compound tire to help prevent the wear in the middle which the Q2 is, there are many others as well. Now if you had the original Qualifier that was a single compound tire, I wore out the one that came with the bike in 2k miles.

Interesting, I never ever could get 4 k from a Q2. To have the sides wear out first with that many miles daily seems really odd to me. I could only get 2-3 track days and then retire them to street duty and maybe get 2500 miles on them.
