    Once the pace picks up if the track is very hot these tyres squirm, spin and slide quite a bit. A good cheap tyre for cooler temps but i don't use them in the Australian summer anymore.
    Great 1st slick for anyone getting into track days, they'll teach you alot.

    Great Video! About how many track days/weekends do you think a Intermediate pace would last on these tires?

      @@jakebsellin thanks! Slow advanced pace, heavy rider and bike, about 140-150whp got me 2 days out of a rear. I’d imagine you’d get at least another day or more depending on bike, rider weight, riding style, and track surface. Flip the rear if your track is biased one way or another.

    Just a heads up, the fronts cannot be flipped!

      That’s an oversight on my part, it does look like Metzeler does not advertise being able to flip the front. I’ll add annotations to the video to correct my statement. Thanks!

    People sleep on these MT10's.
    They are fast.
    I'll check out these Metzlers.

      Certainly! They’ve got the right bones, but definitely benefit from rearsets, brake pads, and good brake fluid at minimum to be track competent.
      Be sure to take advantage of the discount code if you decide to try a set!

    Do you use traction control?

      @linglingbraps  5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Yes, I leave TC and slide control on the lowest settings.

      @@linglingbraps ok so I'm not familiar with your bike, I assume there's a way to set it for different tyre sizes? I have an older (2013) R1 and I'm not sure if I could go with a 200 rear.... When I bought it it had aftermarket chain and sprockets on it so the tc wasn't working so I ended up getting stock set in order for tc to work. I'm wondering if it would work with different size tyre?

      @linglingbraps  5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @@georgenegrics4274 Your gen R1 uses speed rings to determine slip via wheel speed differential. If I'm not mistaken, a sprocket change itself shouldn't affect your TC to the point that it doesn't work anymore. Did it throw a CEL? To answer your question, you should be okay with modest tire changes, such as going the next size width/aspect ratio up. So if your stock rear is a 190/55, a 200/55 or 200/60 shouldn't make your TC go haywire, though you'll probably feel a taller tire mechanically (slower to spin up, better tip in, etc.)
