i take back SOME of what i said after readign abe's post...your best best is still a race tearoff dot front...probably your cheapest bet too\\wow three posts in 2 minutes

 

Are you a moron?

In the context of rolling legit endos - no, locking up your front tire is absolutely not fun.

 

bro... im not talkin about rolling legit stoppies. Im talkin about just goofing off and lokcing it up and seing how long you can sustain it. Im not trying to say i can roll stoppies because I cant. Im lucky to go over 100 ft on a GREAT day. Im just saying that they are fun to **** off with. Not everything in this sport has to be about being 100% serious at all times. If you dont go out and have fun with it... then I dont think you should be in it. You cant tell em that bunny hopping man holes, short bridges and spped bumps arent fun. why should locking up your front wheel be any different than that kinda ****. Im in this for the love of it and Having fun. If you cant do that in this sport then what is it all about. Not everything is to be taken serious... much like many of my posts. I give out the best information to my personal experiences and i also **** off. People like to laugh and I try to help that along. Lighten up bro... have some fun every once in a while... Its okay once you get used to it.

 

well, I dont know anybody that "tried" a slick on the front and went back to a reg tire afterward. I do however know at least half a dozen that tried them and still run em, myself included. I barely ride on mine 5 minutes and its sticky as hell.

 

Well u know one now

 

+1 on the slicks I love them!
I like the feel and feed back of the slicks def..!

 

U may love them, but Can u Please explain to me how the slick ur running up front gives u any sort of "feedback" ?

 

I just like the feel of slicks?
They seem to give me some confidence as I have never really had any problems with grip? "Feed back" may have been the wrong words to use.
And sure it's all preference but on a busted budget like mine they seem to be a good choice as far as price and good grip? But do not get me wrong I am no endo killer like Rowdy so I am in no way trying to give advise here. I was only agreeing with Abe and stating my personal opinion!

 

Im jk with u bro...**** I just though maybe I didnt give them enough of a chance, and u knew something I didnt

 

I had a diablo race front non Dot and that bitch slides like no other

 

Isnt that what its supposed to do?

 

You got some sweet endos, but I think you should give em another chance, they do bite like hell

 

thats what i did to the stock f4i forks too, except for the valving.. 15 w in f4i is best for endo's! the RC51 which i run now (putting it in the RR too!!) has got 10 instead of 15, and is also really stiff! love it, wouldnt wanna change it..

 

My pilot power 2ct does all that and more... and will last ALOT longer too. Try picking it up at around 105mph for 3-4hrs and get back to me on that

 

i love the powers, i know its only 7 more bucks but is the 2ct worth it i ran both and for stoppies it all felt the same.

my understanding is that theres a softer compound on the edges so when your out leaning the bike over you have more traction. . . so i dont see how it would help in stoppies where you roll on the center of the tire.

 

for sever extra dollars why not. But there shouldnt be a difference in stoppies. They are sticky on the sides though.

 

***** did i ask you for your

i was asking if he went 2ct for a reason dude picks up at 100+ i think he may have some insight

 

did it when i was working on my 300 plus approach and the tire lasted the rest of the summer till i sold it in november. anyway how is Tn? was wanting to make a trip the the A but then heard you guys are not going to be there. oh well another time.

 

Pilot Power, pilot power and only pilot powers.. Did i say to only run a Pilot power? Ohhh no Pilot race bullshit or Corsa super duty race sticky plus 43789 compound junk either..


But ive never tried a 2ct, but i dont like change ill just stick to my pilot power.

Did i say i like pilot power?

 

Im stealing your ******* table!
