Sorry if a repost I went through 5 pages of threads and couldn't find an answer.

So tomorrow I will be going to Jennings. Hers my prob/question. My BT016's are at about there limit down the centers from commuting to/from work about 120 miles a day in basically a straight line but the sides are fine almost new for that matter... But I have a set of power race tires with one practice session on them. The problem is that they are 120/190's and mine are 120/180's. what will be the effects on the bike and is it not a good idea to run them and jst get a set at the track or run what i have and use them up and get new after my track day?
Looking for suggestions as it has been since 92 that I have been on a track and got off sport bikes and went to cruse bikes till last year.

And I have never run Michelin's I have always run Bridgestone or Pirellie's through out the years tho the tires have changed as much as the bikes since I have been on a sport bike. :shiftyI gotta say tho I'm havin a blast and am glad I let my then 14yr old daughter talk me into getting another one:biggrin

But all is good! I ask the control riders and they told me that my BT016's were fine on the sides to go ahead and run them for the day but that I will be needin some new ones after the day was over.




WOW!!!! What a Blast!!!!! Man I shoulda never got off these things!

Ill post up some more after I get them all to photobucketunk

Im on the blk bike. The 2nd pic is at the gas station on the way. And the last one is a buddy's bike after an (about 70mph and 20+ foot in the air) high-side. He is ok but did brake his right big toe and ankle, and his left foot.
