    With increased pressure, the tyre surface may get hot faster than the carcass. This causes 'sheer' where the outer layer rips up/off.

    It's never described as the tyre overheating.

    I must have missed the part where you told us how fast you are taking corners on your fast couch. Mind telling us again?

    Sounds to me like you're describing de-lamination.

    No idea who cam is but sure.

    Drew does have experience i've never denied that or even thought otherwise...

    You see, some would say it is better to look stupid than to open your mouth and remove all doubt.

    I have no issue throwing my thoughts out there and being proven wrong, its a great way to learn...

    Meanwhile how many of you sit here quietly not questioning anything, not offering any input right or wrong to contribute to the discussion? instead you just sit there slinging shit around, i'd hardly deem it constructive.

    I don't think so, typically delamination is described as the entire body of tread (of a particular area) coming free from the tyre.

    First pic is of delamination, second pic is tyre tear (or as Drew was referring to, I think, sheer or ripping up.

    He was talking about the outer heating faster than the carcass and the tread coming up/off so i wanted to clarify

    Alright I will bite (just like you bite the pillow).

    Considering I only ride on the track now I have no other input other than to say I know from rumour that one of NZs top racers ran 39psi on the front of his 600 and won a title. Personally I think that if you think you'd fall off with 2psi extra in your tyres you need to learn how to feel what your bike is doing by doing some track days etc. When I did road ride I would drop my pressure by about 2psi in winter just to make my brain feel better, probably made fuck all difference though as I am not a twat and rode responsibly(ish) on the road.

    You lot are supposedly grown men but resort to pretty insults and gay jokes, i'm supposedly the young fella who is meant to learn and listen and watch your example and look how you behave.

    Its utterly pathetic.

    Not going to bother even reading the rest of your post until you lead by example instead of opening with an insult.

    I mean it isnt rocket science. too low... chew tyres .... too high... not using the tyres potential...

    had a really good laugh at the attitude of a few psi difference in a tyre wont cause me to slide off the road and i must be riding like a street rossi to have issues... a few psi makes a massive difference and frankly if you ride your bike like that go buy a cruiser and stop posing on the 1000cc superbike
    go back and read the original post.
    You said to keep a tire from over heating you need lower pressure but that's counter intuitive to everything else your trying to say.
