My mate got a brand new repsol CBR500,

It's a lovely little bike to be fair. He's got it for 3 years, it was quicker than my 33bhp hornet Twisted Evil


Not off the line though, and not in 5 months Wink

Also, this is my tyre... Michelin Pilot Road 3's.

Previous owner motorway'd it. Do these need replacing? Laughing

I suspect those holes are the wear indicators... reaching the bottom = time to get new tyre Razz

Rolling Eyes shame about the rest of the tyre

Haha! Apparently he had done 5k of commuting up and down a motorway on them. And I've had them for 3k, I'm shit at corners though.

Maybe with some new rubber I'll get 'better' Laughing
