Road 5 Sidewall Markings Question


Recommended Posts

I'm surprise at how chewed up that sidewall is.  Looks like a race tire. 

Must be pretty soft rubber in those sidewalls.

I'm a total newbie when it comes to adjusting the suspension. It's on my list of things to do for sure. Pretty sure I had about 40-42 lbs in it though

Play around with it but track it. It's the only thing I actually track on my bikes other than maintenance. 

I don't have any pics of super abused tires on the fj-09. Should get out my sandpaper. Otoh here's what I do to dot race tires on the track with 65 hp :)

I don't notice much tire noise with my new 5s, despite the deep tread pattern.
