Like I said, this is not a ds thread. I'm not looking to be berated for having a square tire on a motorcycle. It is just some pics of a recent ride. I wore out the original rear tire with 4400 miles on it and was about to lose the weekend of riding so I put a 225 on that is rated for 168 mph. Done a massive burn out while leaving the shop and it was sticking very well from then on. Not sure if it will be permanent, but will leave it for this year.

Mate looks like you have way to much pressure in that tire , i only run 28psi to allow sidewall to flex, judging by that pic yours isnt flexing
 
Fun, aren't they?

28 - 32 psi is around where you should be. Definitely on the high end when running two up.
 
That picture was taken the day after the tire was installed. I was still working on finding the right air pressure.
Btw it was nice of my son to wait on me so we could get those pics. He is on the sport bike.
