Just measured the tread depth of the new Pirelli Diablo at 6mm, I normally get about 3000 miles from a tyre. so thats about 5mm of wear for 3000 miles, which is 600 miles per millimeter. So the 0.2mm below works out at 120miles or about a tank of gas on my 916.

So when stopped i'm within a quarter of a mile of my house with the fuel light on. which means when I took the bike out of the garage the evening before for nightshift the tyre was probably legal. rode to work and back then after some kip nipped out to meet up with Bradders.
