Title: Ohlins shock Sport Demon tires
Post by: guzzi771 on June 24, 2020, 05:51:40 PM
This is what a SD tire looks like after a few laps at COTA with Ohlins shocks do they look greasy or perfect ?

Yep, that's the way they look all right. I don't get it when people say SDs don't stick.. <scratching head.>

Out riding today, and started to think that it might not be the tires so much, (though I'm still wondering if OEM fit tires are as good as aftermarket, for reasons outlined above) as it is the non-adjustable, built to a price point forks?

That must be it, I'm a hopeless pud behind the handle bar!   I couldn't possibly be detecting any sort of mechanical short fall in design or execution. :laugh:

Looks like fun!  Wish I had the funds for track days when my body could handle track days.   :thumb:
