Thanks for the feedback guys. I ordered a new tire today from a different distributor, just incase the last one I got was from a bad batch. The rebound issue is definitely a possibility. Think I should try loosening up the rebound damping in the meantime before I get to the track?

Yea, I'm not even to the wear bars though.

I double checked the clearance and that isn't the issue. I took some better photos today. Maybe the damping settings are off or the stock suspension is just beating up the tire. It just doesn't look like anything I've seen in the Dave Moss videos.

Thanks for the feedback. VIR North is a tricky track to learn in a few laps and appreciate your input.

Steve, Thanks so much for replying. I was just trying to get a baseline understanding of motorcycle tires. The fact that hot is off the warmers clears a lot of things up for me. I appreciate that. I also agree cold temps are a very unreliable way to set pressures. I did not have warmers either...

I have read through some of the posts and have some looming questions for the tire gurus. Full disclosure, I have not yet joined you guys on the track yet but am looking forward to doing so. 1. I spent some time racing/engineering on four wheels and find it hard to believe that the pressures...

Hi everyone, I am really looking forward to getting my '10 Z1000 out on the track to improve my skills. I've been through the site and had two questions before I join up and start signing up for days at VIR. 1. I don't have full leathers and I understand that NESBA offers rentals. My problem...
