Do you really need that extra sharp edge to keep up with those TTRs ?
Ha! The TTRs don't come out on our usual days. It's all KTMs, 450Xs, Betas and Huskies.
But that's not the point. I just hate throwing away tyres that obviously have more life left in them. In fact I pass on my old tyres to a couple of local young farm scrotes who rag the last out of them in the fields, or sometimes I sell a job lot for a fiver each.
Tyres are an environmental disaster generally. There are limited recycling routes for radial steel content and re-use of tyres in safety surfacing etc., but on the whole the volume of waste tyres far exceeds the recycling market demand. So we should all be making the most of them.
