Don't ride.

Go to a sport touring tire & maintain recommended tire pressure.

slightly higher tire pressure will keep the wear down at the expense of grip

Thank you for the reply.

Thank you for the reply, I'm gradually testing higher pressure, so far 35/33 its still gripping my ride. Waiting a new boots to increase another psi.
Go ride more, do not not ride. :rolleyes:

Yes on sport touring tires. Don't do burnouts.
You will still have to pay to play but not as often.

I'll give my 2 cents. I don't want my tyres/tires to last too long as they harden over time. Tyres are a sacrificial component and they give their life for mine. I'm happy with that :D

Thank you for the help. I trying to find alternatives to diablo rosso, but from what is available locally I have a good deal on them.

Thank you for sharing you opinion. I agree with you, don't let them get old...

Current pair took 3 months and about 4k km (2.5k miles), with the sides getting slick before the center on the rear, and on the front I got a nice V line that is giving me some chilling ocean shimmy lol.


Thank you, for the picture. I have known a guy that used a car tire on a busa for long trips... Maybe if I come up with some new lean technique, it just might do it lol
