Too Much or Too Little Damping

When the leading edges of the grooves on a tire are rounded off, and the trailing edges are raised, that means the rebound damping is too soft and I need to add rebound damping - right?

Thanks for any thoughts. I've got lots to learn.

 

Don't know I ask Ken from superbike italia about this as it is the same problem i have been having and he basically said redo the suspension. :roll:

 

I'm no expert, but that's how my tires have always worn and I'm not convinced it's an issue with suspension setup.

 

The bike is coming up to slow is usually the cause for that.

 

Thanks for the thoughts. I've only noticed the problem since I've started pushing a little harder (or maybe its the 10 pounds I've gained) so I assumed it was suspension.

What do you mean the bike is coming up too slow? You mean I'm not standing it up quick enough when getting on the gas?

 

no the rebound is making the bike come up to slow. You will need to go two to three clicks and see if the bike rebounds any quicker. if you try it and see if the tire cleans up.

 

Ah, got it. Rebound damping is too slow, so reduce the damping a little and see. Thank you.
