just noticed you said you have a 190 back tire. doesnt that make it harder to turn? and maybe the profile of the tire with the geometry of the bike will
make it very difficult to get rid of the strips. just a thought, I may not have a clue what Im talking about.

yeah on a 300 tire I would think you would have a lot of hard parts hitting the ground.

Get the new Michelin PP's...they have a high center, and angle to the edge...easy to get rid of your strips.

They did this to get better grip on the track...the easier chicken removal is a side benefit...

If all else fails...get some 1000 grit sand paper and sand them off.

That way...the POSE is complete.

I actually do have the pilot powers, since starting the thread my strips have been reduced quite a bit. Ive actually been able to wear the tire to the middle of the little michelin man on the edges. I'll keep at it though.
