Re: any word on the "hook up" at valdosta?
lets get something straight here...the tire isnt 2 lbs heavier than a p1...not at all....
it never ceases to amaze me how many people read past something and drawing conclusions...
bottom line is what i just said...more people will be on this tire than any other tire...like i said the work is done..foundation has be laid...
those that want to knock the tire will...those that are in "the know" will run it and win with it and be faster than they have ever been...and not go broke buying one...it has been very amusing to see how many have turned and jumped fences this year after talking soooo much smack about Shinko tires...even after the domination that was thrown all over everyone last year....... and now are all over this like green on a Kawasaki...lol

Re: any word on the "hook up" at valdosta?
the weight difference between the two is less than a pound with the power one being lighter.I will say the Shinko did good it's first time out in competition But the power one did resets it's own et record with the same team .from a 7.15 to 7.12.

Re: any word on the "hook up" at valdosta?
Richie or anyone else. Please take a NEW Power 1 with teh sticker still on it to a US post office near you and weigh it and post the actual weight of a new P1.
As mentioned, I did this with the hook up and it was 12 lbs 14.5 oz with teh sticker still on it.
I personally think only top rate bikes and riders will consistently see a difference of 1-2 lbs on a tire.

Its cool that theres several options for tires nowadays that will allow the rider to be competitive with no matter which brand they choose or what there budget is. Cool thread got a feeling this shinko is gonna do big things

Re: any word on the "hook up" at valdosta?
dad's hook up got shipped to my house on an accident and when I took it to usps to send it to him they weighed it at 10.8 lbs on their scale... Maybe I got a pre-production? Dad said that on his digital fish scale it weighed 2 lbs less than his worn to the belts u-soft.
