    Hey, long time no response

    I ride where there are no public. It's safer I reckon.

    hey there, i think i saw you at DTPC when i was there getting my pures fitted up on the zx6r, the tyre wear sounds impressive.. what sort of pressures are you running? im sure your on the money but it can increase wear not having them at optimum, have you tried using more pressure etc.. how is the tyre wearing? sides shredded? top flat all over etc, how is the front?.. could come down to your suspension setup also, making the tyres work harder. (more so with the weight/ riding style obviously)

    I know, from your reputation, you're a fast rider. but that life span is a bit short. How well set up is your suspension? I know a lot of people who went from the same sorta life to 10-15k after getting there suspension sorted. You should look at this if you havnt it'll pay for itself with in the first time u change tyres. Unless you get tyres REAL cheap lol

    is that the same amount of kms for front and rear?

    I get 5000km out of a cbr250 rear, and about 10 on the front. From hardish tyres. I know thats all in the suspension which i desperately need to look at lol 5000km lasts me from a week to a month on the good days :P
    Then I could get a Kb Tshirt, move to Timaru and become a full time crossdressing faggot

    Yeah, was at DTPC last Saturday morning getting a new set of Angels fitted.
    Yep, always check my pressures for the optimum riding experience and my suspenders are the best I can get to for handling and stability without going for after market units.

    The tyres wear evenly and the front wears to the normal bald at 10 and 2 oclock positions with meat left in the centre.

    I'm a bit hard on the cornering aspect so they do get a real good workout.

    I don't get tyres cheap unfortunately
    Front normally 5,000kms on the PR2's and around 3500kms on the rear with PR2's. The angels are a full set this time so I'm not expecting much from the front this time.
    The suspenders are set up for the best ride the way I ride her which is quite hard but it needs to be with the weight of the bike
