Tyre sizes?

In my experience just because you get to off the end of the tire on the rear doesnt mean you will go off it, because of how much it squashes. It doesnt take much lean to get to the edge on the back of any sports tire. It just means once you do the contact patch will be getting abit smaller, You can still lean more and get to the edge of the front aswell without loosing the rear. I always take the back being line free as a given, and only judge by the front as how much I have left. What I mean is the back will always reach the edge first. Or are you saying you find you reach the edge on the front the same time as the back with the 190 on these bikes?
I once went off the edge of a front once (the bike was already sitting on the belly pan, so there was all most no damage), but Id reached the edge of the back way before.
I was just wondering if any of you have had issues with loosing the back through lean using the 180?
I see what you mean though, I guess the 180 would flatten out on a rim made for a 190?

Tried the 180 and the 190 and liked the 180 more, not that this comment adds any value as its down the rider.

If comments and opinions didnt have value, wouldnt be much point in a forum :thumbup

What did you prefer about it?

Although I am probably just gonna stick em on, as havent got cash for another rear at the mo, it`s ***** with these 50p`s on and we`l be lucky if theres much riding time left in the year! :uhoh

I like the 180 as it tips in quicker, nothing more really lol. I know what you mean about 50p tyres mate, friggin nightmare, normally the case when you get a bike of some goon who doesnt know how to ride properly! Im also trying to squeeze every bit of sunlight I can before I get depressed and the winter sets in.

You and me both mate. I get so depressed when winter sets in. I think a spainish track week may be in order this winter to break things up abit! So I`m trying to get the bike sorted beforehand in the last bit of british sun. Its had new brembo discs on it which dont really bite yet. Got any experience of how long it takes to bed a set in? Also has a sliiighty bent right clip-on from a little lowside the last guy had on it. and the bars seem to turn slightly to the right when you brake.
The guy replaced the forks, and im thinking they might be twisted in the yokes. Or it may just be the bent clip on making it feel that way when i lean on the in braking...
Either way its not ready for track yet!
