Default tire gone!

My rear is showing the cords and what kills me is two weeks ago I got a used front put on and the guy even said I should get the rear replaced. I was hoping it'd last till next week. So at tracks do they always have tire sales or just most of them?

You should try ordering new tires. Your bike will handle better with a matched set of new rubber.
Your tire guy was trying to give you good advice. There are wear bars in the tread block that indicate the tire is worn out. Oncethe wear bars are even with the surface the tire should be replaced.Tires are one areanot to be cheap. I know there are a lot of people who run take offs.

So has anybody ever been to a track day around here? I just want to know if I can buy a set while I'm at the track.
