Watching this with interest, thought about doing my bike test this year, but a track day car would be the better option

Surely that's not the asymmetrical tyre anyway?

According to the writing on the tyre wall, it is. These tyres were about 1000 miles old.drybeer wrote: Surely that's not the asymmetrical tyre anyway?
