Tyre pressures
#12
If you are running regular street tyre's start of with a pressure not much down from normal street use 35-38psi reason is street tyre's are designed to heat up quicker than a dedicated track day/race tyre and will offer you more grip after a couple of laps if you drop the pressure to much on a street tyre it will increase the contact patch but wont generate enough heat in the tyre & if your speed isn't up enough all you will do is cold tear it which can look like a lot of tyre wear balling up or a ripping where you get on the power over inflation will feel slippery where it wasn't on previous laps you are looking for a 4-6psi increase from cold to off the track hot (eg 38-44psi) if its lower put more in and visa versa you can chase this all day weather conditions and all hope this helps. Another good idea is have your suspension looked at there will be someone there doing this good investment for a couple of bucks but theres only so much they can do with standard stuffPi_thumbsup
Also if you havnt got warmers park your bike in the sun every little bit helps Coolsmiley
After burners day is held the day after WSBK's I have never done one and after watching one a couple of years ago it was the craziest day no groups just mix it up with anyone out there Idiot2
