Hi all, just have a couple of things that I want to ask the forum; 1) Front tyre wearing out before the rear - Scorpion front was very close to the wear indicator after only 6,400km (4,000 miles) yet the rear still had some life left. Could this be a suspension set up issue or something else. Never had this happen on any of my previous bikes. No, have not been doing any stoppies!! I have the base 1200 model, so not sure if anyone has experienced this. 2) I have been invited to a wedding, which is in Palma De Mallorca. Any thoughts of how to get a suit into the bags for the trip? I have also considered posting my suit to where I am staying but would still need to bring it back with me. Many thanks, Gio
My front wore out before the rear as well so I guess it's the bike. Box and send the suit and arrange collection and return home as well using Parcel2Go or similar.
See my post here http://ducatiforum.co.uk/f41/suspension-set-up-help-11472/ only 2100miles and the front is pretty much toast! Some enthusiastic riding and fast touring have the front tyre showing some strange wear, and it now feels a bit odd. Be lucky to squeeze another 500 miles out of it, as its on the wear bars at the side. Rear still in good nick. My feeling is that PR2s could be the majority of the solution....
I was speaking to a dealer about this the other day, my KTM RC8's front had worn out pretty quick. Not in the middle but off to both sides. He reckons it seems to be happening on lots of bikes that have been designed in the last few years.
