However I have 2CTs Pilots on there now which are fairly new. They're actually starting to wear to a point now Whereas before the moron before me who traded the bike in on a harley, decided flat and wide was a better tire choice. (190/50 )

190/55 FTW. Tigger ran a 200/50 for a while.

I hope so, cause last time I checked superbike tires aren't really supposed to be this flat. Ugh

Oh well, few more trackdays and maybe some burnouts will tear em up enough to justify a new set of tires.

Um...who's a fucking moron? They were running and may still run a 200 series tire on the rear in World Superbike. I'm sure that YOU know better though,right Sparky?

Who you talking to? lol

*I was refering to my tires btw, not yours. If you could see mine, they almost literally looked squared off when I picked my bike up. Plus I like em coming to a "sharp" point, for a quick drop in/drop down, whatever you call it. My rim is apparently made extra wide to fit the bigger tire, and thus putting a lower profile on it leaves it handling less than optimal.(or at least says the physics in my head)

You and you're bike isn't special. You have a 6" rim just like I do. Are you sure that you even have a ZX-10... The only tires that I've seen like that is the Stinko,I mean Shinko drag race tires.

This is your ignorant post,right? Basically stating that anyone with a 190/50 on the rear is a "moron". Hey we're going to Deal's Gap next month,why don't you come on over and show us morons how to do "laps" track boy?

[Amber Lamps]

Oh and motorcycle tires aren't car tires. The manufacturers use different belt profiles/techniques which will give the tires vastly different handling qualities between brands even though the tires are the same "size".

Ha yea,I'm just busting his chops. He's probably okay but he definitely smells funny with these comments about "only doing track days" or "laps" and the my rim is wider than a "normal" bike. Btw are you going to be at the Gap on the 5th or 6th when we get there?
