Looks ok
standard normal wear for that use
Looks right to me, after a track day is be pissed if it didn’t look like that
Open the throttle earlier
Is that why there is a sudden change in the wear pattern ?
A little more aggression on the gas, that change should be a curve. It looks like you’re standing the bike up and gently rolling the power on, which isn’t necessarily a bad thing, it’s safe but it’s not fast.
But build up to it, high sides are painful.
that’s exactly what I’m doing, I try to eek a bit more throttle each session but clearly not nearly enough, also getting used to supercorsa tyres , never had anything that sticky , cheers for the advice
Ask a expert if you want advice! You will just get reamed on here! 🤣 but from my limited knowledge, get on throttle a bit earlier and less coasting!
What road was that on I bet it’s not the ones where I live lol
Brands indy, decent roads around me are half hour away and hit n miss on the traffic
northern ireland roads falling apart and now full of idiots
Did a few Endurance races at Bishopscourt. Not me riding. Just chewed up tyres. Great People and Hospitality.🤣
Looks reasonable, the rippling indicates a slight issue but im not a suspension specialist so I won’t guess for you. Take it to somewhere like racelab suspension, MCT, 100% suspension etc. A specialist rather than someone who does it as a side gig. This is my tyre wear after 2 practice sessions, qualifying and a race. Conti slicks are quite forgiving of shit suspension and I know my shock is shagged but I bought the bike less than a week before the race weekend so have to run it as it stands 😂
Tyres tearing somethings a miss with suspension setup
Have you come off a track ? If so its other rubber getting stuck to your tire its a rubber booger you can peal them off
Looks good to me Simon . Shows you’re trying.🤔
As chicken strips go… all Looks OK🤣🤣
suspension set up💪🏻
Getting there
