YES rider skill is must if your racing on the street or track and you guys don't go to the track SO your street racing and Ive done plenty of both over the years I bought CF wheels with tires a CT on the rear and MC tire up front and rode the bike over a 1000 miles and the front tire was worn to start but looked to have 50 percent left BUT the 1000 miles I rode scrubbed the front tire down to nothing I then replaced the CT with a Shinko MCT tire that cost only $125 and a front MCT that was $93 and that combo transformed the bike The weird handling and front tire wear ceased and the rear 005 ADVANCE Shinko lasted over 10,000 milesand you do that very well, I was impressed with how well you handled the twisty stuff Lopefor a smaller guy you ride like a much bigger guy throwing her around with ease
As for the front tyre wear I recently went to a MC tyre and the front tyre wear was much the same as with a Darkside which I have gone back to with no regrets as if inflated correctly to suit the rider and load flicks from side to side as fast and unless you are limp-wristedis no problem even at lower speeds in fact once you have actually done a few thousand km or miles you will hardley notice the difference getting of a DS to a MC tyred bike I know I don't
But Please Note this is Just My Opinion For what it is Worth and the Nay Sayers can go to Hell as apart from Phil (who was running a Toyo tyre which was too soft in tyre wall, I have used it as well and got rid of it) I don't believe any of the others have done enough miles/Kilometers or are Qualified to actually give an Honest Opinion
