RE: Tire wear at front tire is uneven

I was reading some past threads and they talked about chicken strips. The rider that doesn't commit to a full enough lean.
The road that I travel does have alot of surprises such as gravel in the middle, deer and tree limbs.
Alot of blind corners where you never now if joe pickup truck driver wanted both lanes to drive on.
I do hold back on a full lean as the road demands. Chicken strips?? Is this my tire wear title??[:@]

Don't worry about the chicken strips, just ride and lean as much as you NEED to. The closer the chicken strip is to the edge of the tire (or the lack thereof) really only shows how ballsy that rider is in the corners, LOL. Don't worry about it, just ride safely and have fun. It's not about commiting to a "full lean", it's just not being as aggressive in the turns.
