I noticed this on my last time on the track...the rear was running off the edge but the front still had the same chicken strips on them. I mentioned this to the Pirelli fitter who was there fitting tyres for customers who after having a look said a lot of this is down to the profile of the OEM front tyre.

Is this true? I also understood that the two bikes were different but I was told on another thread that they are the same so I checked and if you compare the two following pics they do look the same to me.





In the track picture above I just think that's foot positioning.
