tyres
 

How many did you get through for the 2006 season..plus test days???

Thanks

Ian

ON a 583 i got thru 1 set ian....and that was ALL races 5 track days AND some SV and SOT races...!!! amazing huh.......

on the 620 i envisage getting thru 3 sets....................

hth

Phil

Then he sold them as slicks:D :D

1 set thats not bad!!!!!

Now theres a plan!!!!

how many did you go through then??

5 sets but 2 sets are still ok for a few track days.

Thats not bad....Plus you still have 2 sets for trackdays!!



thinking off doing a few rounds with derby phoenix next year.....so think five sets might cover me!!!!

Thanks Ian

LMAO....yeah 5 sets will easily cover it Ian.....you would get away with 3 or 4 imho........

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......

what class with Dp.?.......

My tyres where 2 seasons old (+ trackdays) and still good enough for pole position at Cadwell, although they were breaking into progressive slides when being pushed at the end

exactly....even when pushed they slide with great feedback...they dont snatch..!..

thats on a 583...my brief excursion on the 620 race at cadwell highlighted to me that the 620 will need a tyre change more often than the 583.....as i say i reckon 3 sets will see me through the 620 season......

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!

I will buy three sets this year,plus the set i have on there already are new!!

Dont mind a few slides, got that with the hayabusa with race tecs on!!
which sadly was sold last night...for me to go racing!!!!


Dp...allcomer and 750 and twins class...

i can barely walk with the weight of my credit card in my wallet LOL


really let me know when u r venturing out with Dp..i could we be up for it...at least i wont come last.....................heheheheh

Ok will do......it will be fun!!!

Couch might be up for that....well thats if he still isnt retired!!!;)

Your bang on there mate..... may even win with dp:lol::lol::lol:

Anyway

I used 2 sets this year and still a fair bit of go left on them

:D :D you only did 1/2 the rounds & no track days!!

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:

Andy

Oh yeah:rolleyes:

Ok then i'm still on same ones from combe so i rekon bout 4/5 sets with track days and a FULL season then:D

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....

Tim

Thanks Guys...

think i will go for three sets..plus what i have on now!!

Planning on doing two or three round of DP next year....

Ian

why not just buy one set & then get new ones when you need them.

Because thats to eze CHass...............LOL

But in Ians defence i think he is concerned with the manufacture explosion in China..not only have they bought up most of the alu in the world, he fears they may start buying all the rubber.......leaving him with 1 set for the season.?..so he is buying 3 sets to sell to us later in the year at a HUGE profit...!!

accumalate to speculate.

because i will be moving house early next year,so i'm trying to get everything ready for the start of the season..
so all i will have to worry about is the entry fee, and test days..I'm just trying to get everything sorted...I will be running 2007 on a very tight budget.....

Damn who told you!!!!;)

Pffft, you don't the meaning of the word tight :lol:

LOL.........................:)
