This was on FB and made me bust out ! Caption was like "I think its about time". This rider might be apart of this group. It would be funny to ask he/she a few fun questions LOL. LOL.

A harbor freight tire groover and another 200 miles!

Never seen a tire worn so evenly. Money’s worth is right.
Was thinking the same, that is super impressive assuming he didn't grind it down like that.

How could anyone ride with that knowing with each rotation it could be the last and do I dare lean into a turn when wet or hit the binders.
Then again, ........Seeing this makes me think I'm just a worry wart and have spent way to much money on tires over the years.:)

Must have been severely underinflated to get such a wide and even wear pattern. That makes it safer...right?

I used to wear mine down to the thread when i lived in Hong Kong but the roads are dry and super grippy there. Here in uk its a different story so I can't be quite as tight anymore...which is very upsetting!!

How is it possible there's no cord showing? Sheesh.
Just a feeeeew more miles.

There was a guy on the FJR Forum who'd wear his down to the cord and then suddenly HAVE to find a tire, as if it were a surprise.
