Track day tyre wear

[SVboy]

Shame you didnt know that Dave Moss was a few garages down from you. I think Drew is right-looks fine considering you were riding sensibly. Would have been a bastard to drop the bike considering the time and $$$ you have put into it.

Dave moss is great value. We are working on some off track seminars at ours which is great for getting a starting point for setting up

I would suggest that your rebound damping is not set correctly. There appears to be a triangular pattern of wear on the side of your tyre from where the rubber is moving around/being worn and then it looks to clean up a little bit, almost in triangular in shape. imagine drawing a zig zag around your tyre where the tip of the triangle is toward the centre of the tyre. According to dave moss videos this means the tyre is skipping hence the uneven wear. Although its pretty hard to tell from the pics and it depends if your sag etc has been set up and your boingers are in good condition and serviced. See dave moss videos on you tube. He set up my bike last year.....what a difference!!! I had similar wear issue on my new bike initially and increased the rebound damping which cleaned the tyre up and settled the bike a lot more. But, dont take my word for it, get an expert to look at it and dont be afraid to adjust things yourself.

do lots of reading, relax on the bike and feel what its doing. if it feels like its out of control and bouncing all over the place then do somthing, if it feels fine, leave it alone. there are some guidelines but its all personal preference.

If i recall corrctly, if there is a build up of rubber on the trailing edge of the tread, like in your pics, there is not enough rebound damping, if its on the leading edge, theres too much.( i stand corrected though as im a bit pissed right now) go watch the dave moss videos.
