what Posted March 6, 2019 Report Share Posted March 6, 2019 (edited) ^Salty bike for a salty pauly. I decided to give Q4's a go on the CBR. Curious how many days I will get out of a rear. $340 total for a set from pony right now if you include the rebate from dunlop. If you need tires and like dunlops, buy before the end of April. Good rebate deal going per set. Edited March 6, 2019 by what Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depends on the track surface, suspension setup, temp, pressures, and how hard you're getting on the gas! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depends on the track surface, suspension setup, temp, pressures, and how hard you're getting on the gas! My q3+ rear lasted almost 8 track days and close to 1000 street miles. Kinda crazy. May be because Mid Ohio's abrasion level is actually negative so it heals tires rather than harms them. I'm hoping to get 2 days. And maybe 1 more if I can flip. Need to read up on that though.

I’m so jealous. It’s like 40 here and wind is blowing like crazy. I really need a powersports fix right now. I Tried to ride the quad yesterday while the ground was still frozen. I ended up snapping the master link not even a half lap around my track. Chain wadded up into case saver and broke the the case where the saver bolts into. No real damage to case other than now I’m missing a bolt hole for the new case saver I ordered. Starting to dream like @NinjaDoc of warm days where I can make it to SEO. What roads are you riding as you’re throwing the MT around? How are the roads down in SEO? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All roads were in surprisingly good shape, really clean. 260 is getting pretty rough. Thanks for the report. I’ll never forget the first time I rode 260 years ago and they had a rough road ahead sign posted. The road was full pot holes filled with gravel. Loose stone was everywhere. They eventually fixed it. Hopefully they’ll repair the current issues this year. I know last year the southbound lane had some drops in it. I typically run it north up to 145 so it didn’t effect me much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NinjaDoc Posted March 11, 2019 Report Share Posted March 11, 2019 (edited) @JustinNck1 glad u got some miles, so jealous. When ever I see your bike I wonder if I made the right choice. I was sooo close to pull the trigger on a 10 @durk last weekend on March , that’s the magic date.

Managed about 70 miles of backroads/gravel here in E-Central OH yesterday. The rain has washed off a lot of the crud on the roads. New Metzelers feeling great. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CBBaron Posted March 12, 2019 Report Share Posted March 12, 2019 Filled up the new, larger tank, strapped the new dry bag to the rack and actually rode to work today! Heated grips on full blast kept the hands working. I thought that setting was for "well done" but was actually necessary this morning Evening should be better. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
durk Posted March 13, 2019 Report Share Posted March 13, 2019 Got an hour ride in after work today. Even though the CBR is 13 years old now it still makes me grin from ear to ear. I specifically was grinning today as I grabbed a handful of throttle to lift the front wheel into the air or to blast past a car and catch the next set of curves. Can’t wait to be able to head south for some real fun. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NinjaDoc Posted March 14, 2019 Report Share Posted March 14, 2019 Took it out for a short spin, went out for a proper ride after almost 18 - 19 months. Feels extremely rusty, almost worried about corners like a new rider again. Gonna take some time to get the groove back. Still better than just staring at the bike in garage. 1 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
