It's alright Pigmy the tire debate will rage until we stop using them and start flying.
Good choice, see you next week.

I would have thought that tire was fine for a track day. All the tread on the edges was still there! [moto]

Seemed like the logical place to post this. Had the new rubber bits fitted this morning (both Betty & Jukie). Thanks to those who offered feedback on their tyres. It all feels a bit defferent ... seems like the glass I had between the tyre and the road has been removed. Makes things a little bit harder for Jukie to get away from me  ... and thanks to Flywheels for then little DMF discount ... so thanks also to the DMF |

Pilot Powers (I think the Boss mentioned it elsewhere a couple of days ago). They seem to be quite popular around these parts.
