Tires 120/70 or 110/70?

There seems to be more and more members appearing that are racing the ZXR400 so i've created a special section just for you to show off results, discuss meets etc etc.

I run 090's on my race ZXR and find them 100%. All the other racers use supercorsa's, just blagged a pair of them (scrubs) and will let you know the difference! I used to run 120/60 but found the 70 profile gives more patch contact and you can get a better lean on. Go for 70's.

BTW me below on 70 profile last weekend, no chance of doing that on 60's, especially being a novice !!

sorry for being stupid but i dont race so what does the DOT mean, im presuming it means road legal? can you use racetecks on the road, and can you get them all shredded like you see them at bike meets on the road or is that just someone who uses the track and then shows them off at the meets??

cheers kerm
never give up!
