HELP: Pirelli Strada owners, will I make it?

[Fatjim]

They look fine to me. The Strada has a lot more rubber than most tyres. Normally, when you run out of tread the bands aren't far below, but not so on the Strada. They'll be ok in the wet as long as it's not pissing down AND your not giving in handfuls.
It hardly ever rains where you're going anyway.

If you do ditch them, keep them for a track day or 2, or 3.

PS, can't see any wear indicators, but they may even be legal.

Hay i would take it easy on the taupo napier road. The last time we went down we came across 7 cops on that stretch only.

Yep. HP getting backhanders from the tyre companies?? Make 'em go slower so their tyres last longer!

Cheers folks. All sorted. I didn't want to have it in the back of my mind that they could canvas, especially between Napier and Taupo. So, have a new set on now so no niggles and can enjoy the ride.

Thanks for the heads up on the HP How to stuff a good bike road.
