Re: chicken strips
after the trip to the Island,this is the first time i`ve almost used full front tyre,3mm short
I can use full rear,but using full front is a different story,and his is the closest i`ve come.
this was with the PR3`s,fully laiden bike,15mm lift kit on the back with wilbers shock set to hard for all the weight on board

Re: chicken strips
Think mine are about 4mm left and 6mm right. Both rear, dont worry about the front. Would go measure but its cold and dark outside.

I think one goes with the other.
You will peg before you use full tyre on a bandit. Unless you do mods to prevent peg out

Re: chicken strips
Bandit: PR2's front about 15mm both sides rear 3mm rhs 5mm lhs not touched the hero knobs yet.
FZ: Power Pures same on front and about 3mm both sides out back but its much more confident that close to the edge

Re: chicken strips
Mine are definitely bigger strips, I mainly commute, and there are no twisties, the tire will likely get a flat spot in the centre, don't really care though. I ain't no hero, I just putt along.

Re: chicken strips
I'm working on it...
Rear 10mm right & left.
Front 15mm right & left.
I reckoned the round about factor would cause 'closer to the edge' wear on the right side - not yet.

Maybe it would be better to post photos of your knee sliders?

Re: chicken strips
I thought I was going pretty good on my ride today, imagine my surprise when I got home to find these huge chicken strips?
