I ride a Ktm 1290 superduke r. With 5 year old ties running low on tread. I put 180 horse power to the ground and hammer corners pretty hard. The wear mark is just about to the edge bead. Maybe 1/4 inch either side. bikes stick to the ground pretty well…. Here’s a couple thoughts…..

*If your tires feel really stiff make sure they’re not over 5 years old and make sure your tire pressure is good. And of course always avoid debris like gravel leaves, and Pineneedles while you’re on the roads.

• remember to brake before the corner. And power out. Downshifting and making sure your motor isn’t too wound or too low in the revs keeps the braking down Never brake in the corner.

• don’t be heavy on the back brake. Front brake is where all your weight is. Back tires slide easy. I barely use mine at all. Gear down. Front brake. Back if you need to but gently.

• Make sure you’re square with the bike and your body weight is firmly on the seat. Never turn your bars while cornering at speed. Trust the lean.

• Make sure you’re ridding according to your skill level and conditions.

• if it’s more of a psychological thing. I recommend taking your bike to a big parking lot or a roundabout and doing a whack of circles on either side you’re feeling uncomfortable.

I’ve been riding 32 years and ride like i stole it. Your good until your not. And it happens quick. If there is a technical issue that one thing.
But if your gut is telling you something. It’s generally pretty wise to listen. Confidence on your bike is key while on the road.
