Default MSRH 7/31/10 ON RACETEC K3's

Just wanted to share that those of you who got these as oe on your
S1000RR are pretty lucky. I ran my fastest laps ever on them and had no issues whatsoever. Probably my best day due to the confidence these tires gave me, wish I could find more of them. These things stick like glue and held a line perfectly without me having to work extra hard initiating the turn or to hold my line. Also no issues coming out of the turn getting on the gas early.

Run the K1's and K2's then you will find true stickyness!

I was one of the first people to ride that track. Shame what happened to the pavement, but it's a really good layout for racing. The old T1/2 config was treacherously fun..

Thumbs up Racetec K3

good for track and also good for touring

just came back from 2200 miles UK to French Alps, including some long hours (650 miles first day). the boys figured we'd have to stop somewhere to get me a new tyre! no way there is still 2 mm on them and they were wicked on the hairpins
