Hi Kev, i got to admit it was not the best of days for testing and with i think 18 riders going down you were actualy fortunate to get enough track time for the testing.

Quiet enjoyed watching you and Chris bodge the bike back together after your little excursion onto the grass

at least it gave me time to finish my bacon butty while you pushed the bike back to the paddock

To have used that one, I would have to have broken your leg & ankle for you to have been able to use it, as that would have been a bit painful I changed them, ok

Did you test a 120/60 or 120/70 front

ChrisBushell · 06-Dec-2009, 19:31

120/70 is the tyre for the series

Yep

who can be bothered to read a post right from the begining when its several days old and several pages long

hi i agree with kev about the rosso's as he said i was at mallory that day and it was cold and damp and i thought the rosso's given that they are a road tyre not a race tyre gave good feed back with exellent warm up features in fact i went from pit lane into gerrads onto my knee and opened the throttle no problem.. never tried other tyres but i think rosso's perform superb in all conditions so why risk other/cheaper tyres at the end of the day its your ass and the only thing that keeps you from going home or going to eu is rubber so choose well...ADY
