I know tyre threads suck - lew600fazer - 23-09-15
Waiting on a new front, current Angel ST has about 3000/3500 max on it. As you sit on the bike all the wear is on the left hand side. Roads in Spain are very abrasive loads of grip.
Think I had best do a reverse my route to what I normally do. Currently the old knees are behaving so taking advantage of getting out and about. When heeling over it is not really surprising that the front end is wanting to tuck in. Hope the new tyre arrives tomorrow, bike just feels all over the place like this. The rear has about 1500 on it and the profile is already altering on that, so right handers as much as possible I think

In my totally untrained opinion in tyres I'd say that's fecked lew! No wonder it's doing funny things on the bends :o

New ST fitted on Friday, picked the bike up and of I went. First round about obviously taking it easy. front felt very heavy, first garage check tyre pressures , no wonder 10 psi. Feels much better when you pop another 26 lbs in it.
