On my FZ I have the BT021 now with 7000 miles on them and they are no where near worn out. I expect they will go at least 10000 miles - maybe more. I do alot of commuting and the center compound has held up great.

According to one of the review articles on the other post, the center compound on the BT 016 is the same as the center compound of the BT021 while the edge compound is that of the BT 002 (not sure about the third compound between edge and center). Based on this they should provide excellent mileage while having fantastic grip in the corners. I am definitely going to go for these when the Dunlop Qualifiers wear out on the CBR. With all of the commuting I do, the Qualifiers are definitely going to wear flat in the middle before long. As much as I like the 021's, I will probably switch to 016's on the FZ when the time comes as well.
