You cant be very fast on the track then....

Nah I'm slow as. Should be under 1:50 on a good day on Taupo track 1 tho. Not bad on stock bike on stock tyres if I do say so myself.

I know there's heaps more in me and the bike if I get the track time.

You say "dry commute"?? So does that mean if it rains hes stuffed?
What if its his only form of transport and uses it rain or shine...?

Well not stuffed but the 016's aren't going to perform as well in the wet as the M3's And they won't perform as well as say the Avon Storms or some other sport/tourer.

My bike is my only transport and I commute 20km each way every day rain/hail/shine and have done 4 trackdays this year so I think I fit the profile of tyre user the OP is after.


EDIT: and if anyone is braking harder on the road during their commute than I did on M3's at 200km/h at Friday MotoTT they need to learn how to ride defensively not get different tyres.

Then after he gets his bike back from the crash repair shop he gets decent tyres and pays more attention to those that actually know what they talk about.






Ohhh and he buys a raincoat for his wheels.
