He's got a ways to go before he's using the "whole" tire! All that mucky rubber should be flowing off of the edge of the tire- not sticking to the surface a 1/4" from the edge of the tire.

The throttle had too long stroke for his taste also. At the first try the trail was too long, and after that was sorted out we just worked with the suspension. I think the problem this day was that the tires simply got overheated, since they are street tires. Too high tirepressure could be a part of the problem. Yes, Björn, thats correct.

Öhlins test rider felt something was slightly off with the handling at the first try, can't recal exactly what it was... Öhlins, Stellan and I.S.R then adjusted the suspension and front fork, I'm sure Stellan will chip in here if I'm way off :-) The test rider then said the bike handled great, aside from the hard seat! :-) /Björn There’s been a couple of articles about the bike here in Sweden and the bike was actually setup with Öhlins test team at the track.
