    how many sets of tires do you go through in a weekend?
     
  8. Well The Grom doesn't need tire changes, so Grim kinda doesn't count.

    Other than that, it depends on the track, conditions. setup, weather, etc etc. And to be honest, I have never really paid attention to it. We just change them as needed. But if I had to guess, probably something like 4 fronts and 6 rears (between the R6 and Panigale).

    At less abrasive tracks, I could probably get away with 2 fronts and 4 rears.

    Like I said, it just depends. And that is based on my experience racing the R6 and RSV4. This will be my first time riding the 1299S so I have no idea how tire life will be on it, especially since we wont get any setup time before racing.

    I mean, I am sensible about it. I don't put on a new rear for every race. I can feel if/when it starts going off and will manage it accordingly. I don't just slap on a new rear every Sprint just because. I don't waste them, but I am also not the guy that you will see riding around on cords. If I feel like my pace is going to suffer due to a lack of drive grip, I will change the tire. Lots of things affect pace, but that is something I can control and easily fix.

    I just meant that I don't go into the weekend with a plan like "I can only use 3 rear tires this weekend". If I can get away with 2-3, that is awesome. If I go through 5-6, it is what it is.

    Can I have the take offs from the r6? Haha
     
  12. Sure can. Just come by my pit and if I have any I will give them to you. I usually give Dustin some also when he needs them. If it helps somebody get on the track I don't mind.

  14. Just keep in mind they are Slicks. I run the same tires on the Panigale and the R6. If that is ok, you can have them.
