The superbike school kawasaki's had 208 GP's on their bikes, and i thought the tires were ****. After getting beat on at the track all day they didnt look like they had gotten *that* worn out either.

 

I had a set of PR take-offs and I prefer the quicker turn in of the 208gp's that I have on now (it also seems to stick a bit better)

I found my 208GPAs to be a vague on turn-in and mid-turn, especially compared to the Metzeler Racetecs. You?

 

sorry for the noobie *** question but what are takeoffs? Just used tires someone wants for practice?

 

takeoffs are tires that people use for race/track days. after a few days, they "take them off" their bike and sell them.

they want the most tread possible, so rather than throw them away, the sell the tires for cheap

 

yup and for ppl like me who cant afford new race tires and wont go through them every trackday theyre perfect

 

ahhh... so i have one rear 190 tire that has a hole in it. should i throw it away or try selling it? do people even ride with patched tires?

 

some people barely trust their own patched tires. let alone someone elses.

trash it

.02

 

hm... well if someone wants it for a stunt tire? it's not patched yet, it just shows where the hole is.

I'd say they would be okay for commuting but I wouldn't mount them back on to do additional trackdays....

 

why not?

Because you pull them off when you wear away most of the tread that you would want for a trackday. The only good tread left is down the middle which is good for riding around town; hence the only reason why people buy them. I've had takeoffs where the sides were just toasted and anyone trying to do a trackday would eat it.

 

not all, what about those that pull them off after 2 td with plenty of tread left?
