oh, ive got a question: given the same corner and the same lean angle a 180 is gonna have less strip than a 190 right? or am i offbase here?
Plenty of decent corners out here. Plus, they are always throwing gravel down in the corners to make it interesting.

The 180 should have less strip. My CBR has a 170 and there is no strip. The wider the tire, the less curve in the tire's cross-section. My GS1000 has a 130, and it has a nice strip. To get no strip on the 130, the bike would almost have to be horizontal in the corners.

But the more you lean off the bike, the more vertical the bike, and the more strip you will have. Chicken strips are so last year.
