Evening org.

I can't work this out so what do you lot think?

I have 2 bikes my sv650s k2 fun, and a ****ty old honda dullsville for plodding around, in 18 months I have put over 10000 miles on each ( I don't have a car! ) both are fitted with pr3's front and rear. I also like a pie or three so am about as round as I am tall.

The honda corners ok and the rear tyre has wear on the entire threaded area right to the edges,

The Suzuki will corner at higher speed but I have close to an inch of untouched tread on either edge of the rear tyre!!

I'm surprised at this, the Suzuki is quite a bit faster in the corners and a LOT more nimble.

I'm not at all bothered about changing this but am baffled as to why and it is doing my head in, so anyone got any ideas ?
