Already run in, hmmm. Someone got rid of the chicken strips for you?

Not that its hard to run in a tyre to be honest. Mine has done the 100 miles already... only got it fitted yesterday. I take it you got it ballanced as well for that neio?

Ha ha. Not that it should be difficult to lose them on a SS600 I wouldnt have thought since my iron maiden (you seem to think that is what it is) seems to enjoy screwing the edge of the tyre.

Nice I guess.

I like to check out chicken strips at meets. The amounts of people on these pretty super bikes etc with nice chicken breasts on the back tyre is laughable...

Yeah, given that the last rear i just got rid of had a bit of help on the edges being a scrub, it was the first ryre i have had that needed replacing because trhe edges were down below the wear limit while the center had a little left above it. Rather than being square it was more angular profile due to the way it started to wear and i carried on wearing it more on the edges.
