If you own a race bike you need to be very careful with your bike when you put on a new set of tires. It pays to ride them and wear them in before you get too nuts and by wearing them in, I mean the sides too.

In other words you need to do some low speed turns with the bike low to the ground a scraping the pegs before you go out and burn thru the canyon at race speeds or do any high speed turns on the street. Why? Well because new tires do not grip as well and a little bit of oil on the ground, some highway markings or debris on the canyon road can cause you to lose control.

If you lose the front in you will dump the bike, high side or send your butt flying head first. If you lose the back end you might be able to recover and if not you bought yourself some more high-tech plastic and please do tell me you have never been down before. We are all grown up here. We know that there are two types of riders; those who have crashed and those who will. So, lets cut the crap right now.

Look your last spill cost you some money didn't it and you felt somewhat stupid didn't you? Well, then to prevent a spill from the Danger of New Tires on your High-Performance Motorcycle Race Bike, get those tires broken in before you go bonsai on the next ride, alright, deal?
