http://www.gixxer.com/forums/images/graemlins/laugh.gif Damn that guy got outta hand with that burnout ! Riding and barking the tire to full out 5th gear burnout http://www.gixxer.com/forums/images/graemlins/crazy.gif

Could someone possibly explain to me the concept of sitting still and burning off all the tread on a $100 tire? Ilike to get as many miles as possible out of mine! http://www.gixxer.com/forums/images/graemlins/dunno.gif

well if your tire is worn out, then why not do burn outs http://www.gixxer.com/forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

why even waste the gas and put that kind of abuse on the motor?

Well when my tires are worn out they are done and I wouldn't be able to do burnout. My last two sets of tire were worn smooth all the way around. I guess I'm just being to critical of other peoples interests. I like to hit the twisties and wear my tires out and get the most mileage but if he wants to wear his out in one block have fun! http://www.gixxer.com/forums/images/graemlins/dunno.gif

I know a lot of guys here burn theirs off too. I am on my first tire so it will be a while before I do it. To each their own.
