Nola Danny called me a told me I forgot to say that he won 3 and got a 2nd in his races. My Bad :)

This past weekend at the WERA National at NOLA we used soft fronts and Medium rears for the races. At a 1:45-1:46 pace we ran the sets for 2 races and then for practice. You can see photos of the tires at http://www.facebook.com/Islandracingservices that were run on Danny Kelseys GSXR-750 along...

I am with Borislav on this one.

Any time. I try to watch the boards but there are just so many of them. If I do not answer a question within a few hours someone send me an email :) David

There were some prototype tires, very few, that said Power Cup on them. The new slicks say "Power Slick" on them not "Power Cup" They will be designated with a letter after the word "Slick" on the side wall. If you have something else that you need identified there will be white numbers on the...

With Michelin there are many differences. Width, diameter ( center and edge ) Casing construction and compounds. They have little in common. They require suspension adjustments both in ride height, spring, compression and damping. What tires are you using now and I can give you some comparison...

By the way the tread depth on a new Road 2 depends on the size on the rear, what size is your tire?

It has been awhile since I have seen a Road 2 as I do not stock them. Take a look down in the sipes, there may be depth indicators. If they are there they are at 50%. Also if this is your commuter bike as well there may be flat spots which can cause issues in transitions on the track by reducing...

I have one, great bike!
