Replacing Rear Tire After Dyno Run

1993zx7ninja · 01-11-2009

Im on Dunlops site looking at tires and I came across this:

"Never put a tire in use that has been subjected to on-the-motorcycle dynamometer engine testing. This severe use of the tire may result in tread compound degradation and subsequent failure."

Do guys really swap tires after getting there bikes dyno'd or do you throw an old tire on before?

Thoughts?

Recommendations?
