Pirelli OEM tyres (diablo rosso corsa)

[xenothius]

if its normal then i may as well keep them on until they're dead then swap them out for a touring tyre or buy a new bike

and most likely take the bike for a run over to Raglan after work

I cant see any flat spots, OMG those are still practically brand new condition, no wear at all.

Seriously dude you don't need to worry till they start looking like this....





BTW the Michelin pilots have the same visible seam on dual compound also, they even mark it with white line now so you know its not defective when you buy.

Flat spot now a lot smaller after a nice run to Raglan and back

My original s20r tyres feel like the replacement s20r tyres. I don't ride fast enough to tell the difference wet or dry.

IKR! 2700kms has rooted them completely however I may have had a bit to do with that

back is 2200 each. Still on original front. Must be a three to one ratio tire. I found rear wheel steering helps keep the front in good condition.
