    Felt good and seen the cupping out on the front on the left side, behind the grooves in the tire,Look like a rebound problem on a rear tire and just want to know if I needed to tune the front a little. I was thinking the rear was perfect for a 07 gsxr 1000. I can kill the rear tire if I run ball to the wall the hold time. Temp was about 70 degrees.

    Tire wear

    Tire looks nice and clean. I'd say your pretty close on your settings. Slight cupping behind the tread can be taken out with a slight re-bound adjustment. Try going a 1/4 turn soft. Tire pressure also effects re-bound so you could have the shock dialed in pretty good but as the weather changes throughout the day, so does your tire pressures. I'd say leave it alone though. I've seen a lot worse.
