9 MITI DA SFATARE SULLE GOMME DA MOTO (e la presentazione delle Dunlop SportSmart Mk4)

The topic of tires is one of the most debated in the chatter among motorcyclists and, as usual, everyone seems to want to propose themselves as the bearer of the absolute truth - only to later discover that all their knowledge came from hearsay in some bar chatter or from the words of some "expert" on some Facebook group. In this video we took advantage of the presence in the editorial office of Marco Pellegatta, marketing manager for southern Europe of Dunlop moto, to have him present the new road-track sports tires of the British brand, the SportSmart Mk4 and, while we were at it, we took advantage of his enormous experience in the field of motorcycle tires, to have us clarify in a definitive and well-substantiated way all the most famous false myths on the subject. The myths to debunk that we have dealt with? Myth #1: Racing tires are always the best choice for a sports bike. Myth #2 There is a pressure value that is more or less always good. Myth #3: to have more grip you always have to lower the pressure. Myth #4: Zigzagging makes the tires warm up faster. Myth #5: Touring tires warm up faster than racing tires. Myth #6: Tires that are very worn only in the center are still perfectly effective when leaning. Myth #7: If the tires are torn after a lap on the track, it means that… Myth #8: It is always better to use slicks on the track. Myth #9: It always makes sense to change one front tire for every two rears. Enjoy! Do you want to see only what you are interested in?
