In response to a previous thread I felt the urge to see if anyone else rides crazily/cautiously on the road. It's just for laughs and in this case, the bigger it is, the harder we'll laugh Laughing

Let me start, here's mine after a hard days riding.

Rear tyre

Front tyre,

(OK, I cheated as these were taken while I was track-daying but I did still lean the bike over that far and did push it that hard around the track.)

My tires still have the little thin bits of rubber sticking out you get on a new tire (about 3.2k miles old).

My rear has those bits on the edges too... about 1000 miles old.
Having said that I've only had the bike just over 2 weeks, and the rear strips are about 1cm from each edge. Not sure about the front, I'll have a look later.

EDIT: Sorry, but no pics cos my camera phone got pinched about a month ago Crying or Very sad
(BTW the bike is my 1st "big bike", it's a GPZ500 with BT45's)
