Today we’re going to examine a very controversial subject: motorcycle tires and why they wear more on one side than the other. Tires and tire pressure are like oil; everybody has an opinion and will fight to defend it. So why does the outside of the rear tire wear down on the side?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The compound on the outer edge of the tire (front and rear) is softer than the middle. This means it will wear faster on the side you go faster on, especially if you live in the UK, as they ride on the right-hand side of the road and have more right-hand corners. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Today we’re going to approach this from a different angle. First, we will look at how you ride and what conditions you ride because this affects tires and tire wear.<\/p>\n\n\n\n We’ll start by looking briefly at tires, then riding styles and other factors that may influence tire wear. Then we’ll look at why the wear is more prevalent on one side or the other in different countries.<\/p>\n\n\n
