Same tyres but different sets, on track at brands, I would take some of my new set of M7RR's but it summer so its raining outside...

That's my current set of tyres. I don't think they've been worn in enough!

Your rear caliper sliding pin needs cleaning and greasing

@Fireskull,

I've read the new M7RR are great all round tyres, matching and exceeding Angel GT's?

IC3 · 1 Jul 2016 at 19:43

I don't think they last as long, as Angel's do. The other thing is, on public roads you wouldn't use all their potential any ways.

And here's the R1

A couple of days ago, they're even better now, no strip at all!

They are amazing but stupidly soft, specially on a really sunny day, I will be surprised if they last longer than the summer

A few guys I know run the M7RR and they agree, they're not a touring tyre like the GTs but absolutely brilliant dry grip wise while not going to pot in the wet either.

My GTs are about 6k miles in and still going strong.

I got maybe 2.5K out of a rear M7RR on my Street Triple.

metamorphpwner · 10 Jul 2016 at 09:44

pilot road 3's, maybe an 20mm left on the left and slightly less on the right. don't think ill be getting it any lower on the roads I usually ride, even the twisty parts there's no need to lean in too far. I need to get myself to some better roads but that means a long ride just to find them.

IC3 · 17 Aug 2016 at 10:36

I'm doing something wrong, I keep scraping the boot... even when my toes are on the pegs.

tom_e · 17 Aug 2016 at 10:39

I've got nothing on the right side of my rear but a good 10mm on the left, obviously not a fan of left handers.

IC3 · 17 Aug 2016 at 10:41

Did you do a trackday in the end? I remember you mentioned one of the reasons for getting leathers, was to go on a track day.

IC3 · 25 Aug 2016 at 22:27

No strip on the right, rear and front.

Left... well, there's still room for improvement.

Clean those wheels IC3 they're minging

I like my chicken strips deep fried and crispy.

I'll at some point, haha. They look worse on the picture than they're in real life... Its an old bike, so I can get away with it!

Nice, I want to do a trackday at some point. I'm not too sure if i should do it on my Angels, or wait till I finish them off and get some M7RR's. :o

You guys have more experience, what am I doing wrong? I haven't scraped with the peg, yet my boot is destroyed inc. the sole. or is this normal? :p

I have the same boots and have only ever lightly scraped a toe slider (and had zero chicken strips in Europe), are you riding with the balls of your feet on the pegs?
