    Should I get a new tire?

    I WAS OUT RIDING WHEELIES AND BURNOUTS THIS WEEKEND AND NOTICED MY TYRE DID THIS IS THIS BAD? I WAS GOING TO GET SOME USED RACE SLICKS BUT MY FRIENDS ON ANOTHER FORUM WWW.SUPERHARDCORERIDINGGIXXERS.COM TOLD ME THAT THIS IS WHAT A TIRE LOOKS LIKE AFTER THE BREAK IN PERIOD AND ITS GOING TO HAVE GREAT TRACTION NOW THEY THINK I HAVE ANOTHER 25000 MILES BEFORE IT DIES. WHAT KIND OF TIRE CAN I FIT ON HERE ITS A 2003 KAT CAN I PUT A 190 ON????????



    Seriously though. I might keep this one just because I'm a bit intrigued to see that far into a tire, not to ride on obviously, buy just to show off. I knew I needed a new one but sheesh......

                Before you pull the tire off you must get a video of a good burnout at night... those are steel belts and last time I checked that makes sparks... I wanna see a good show from this one!

                  Lesse , he rode down here , we headed out 22 from Dry Ridge (out west towards 227/330) , and when we got to the road I wanted to explore I stopped to see how he was and how his tire felt before "playtime" (he'd been saying it felt odd being so old and squred-off) . He goes back to look at the tire and says something to the effect of "oh shit !" . I ask "what , you seein belt now? " . "Um , yeah" . So from the time he got from his place to the START of the ride , you could see the belt almost all the way around the tire . So we took it easy up the "new" road , then back into town . Short ride .
