Chicken strips front but not rear - what is this telling me?

Same goes for the knee and toe sliders!

Belt sander with the coarsest belt, reputation to uphold

Nar that's normal for sport demons buddy. I honed out 3 ? sets of them on me ol' spada. The rear isn't very radiused in comparison to the front.

When you do start hooking into that last 8-10mm of front tread, you'll have your knee down, then your elbow. And your head, your back, your arse and your forearm..

As an aside I run 28front and 26rear on the track. 34 all round on the road. Seems to go alright.

Yeah well, I run a rear tyre of 160 width, whereas the standard is a 150. On the 150 I was running off the end of the tread, now on the 160 I've got maybe 4-5 mm of chicken strip. On the standard sized front, a 120 I've got at least 10 mm of chicken strip. Tracktime doesn't make much difference to this...oh well, bring on that belt sander

My gixxer does exactly the same thing to the tyres that the OP was talking about. I was actually wondering if that's normal, but it's all good to know that it is.
