Default good tire gone bad

Last time I rode my RR I had a car pull out in front of me causing me to slam on my brakes, my tire was getting down there and needed replaced but still had life left to ride on these last warm days. Its gonna get finished off with a nice burnout soon.

Here's a nice shot of metal showing!

ouch i'd say you need a new one. i've hear the sportmax Q2's are pretty sweet, not that bad of a price either. Dunlop Sportmax Q2 Rear Tire - Street Bike - Motorcycle Superstore
