I did 2 pairs this year.
That was for 7 race meets plus 7 track days.
Maybe I could've done with a third set? At cadwell I was struggling with front grip, but I'm not bright enough to work out if that was shagged tyres, bike setup or ME!

They really do last well and even when they go " off " a bit they still offer good grip with progressive slides..they dont just let go......

Brilliant tyres imho......

I managed six, ok 5.5, races on Kevs used tyres (i think he's had them on all season.

My other second hand set did 3-4 trackdays and most of the Cadwell 2-dayer.

Theres another season in them yet :lol:

I told our tyre sponsor that we need a new set for each meeting, so we'll have 24 sets of part worns next year ;)

:devil:

I used three sets this year, there's a bit left in the last set.
I reckon you could get away with 2 fronts and 3 rears for the whole season and trackdays etc....
