Interesting! With the rear wheel focus of the self-steering technique, it makes so much sense to draw inspiration from our cousins in the stunting world.

I will also provide these lists of episodes on the Warsaw MotoGymkhana Warsaw website. You're talking about what I spent almost 2 years discovering while learning on my own. You hit the spot.

I get it that there's more flex with low tire pressure but how are you going to put some heat in them with such low speeds? On the track that's the point of lowering pressures. Because they air volume will increase due to the increased temperature.

Thank you for your question. I've never had any traction issues because of cold tires while riding gymkhana. My falls have always been due to rider error, not traction loss. I can usually get them warm enough by just warming up for 5 min doing heavy acceleration and braking. Plus, I'm not using slicks; I am using road oriented tires that are designed to warm up pretty quickly. With M-Gymkhana, we compete in areas where it's usually between 85-110 degrees F and the tires keep warm enough by just hanging out in direct sunlight. Track needs are definitely different than gymkhana needs. We're definitely not dealing with the same speeds and amount of physical forces. Like I briefly mentioned in the video, I'd say gymkhana needs are more like the needs of a stunt rider than a track rider. Thanks for watching :)

Hi Alex, thanks for the great content! I just started doing Gymkhana a couple of months ago... I have an XSR900 and have been using stock tire pressure... With doing tight loops all the time, I'm getting the front tire completely worn out with a profile like this after just 700km: __------__ _ / \ _ _ / \ _ / \ / \ / \ / \ / \ _ / \ _ __ / \ __ __ / \ __ Have you experienced this effect? Back tire is worn nice and evenly (still almost new) How many km can one expect to get from tires in your experience? Thanks!

I haven’t experienced any abnormal wear like that. I usually get about 10-12 months out of a set of tires on my gymkhana dedicated bike. I think abnormal wear is most likely due to issues with suspension settings, which could also include tire pressures. I don’t know if you have any adjustability but if you do, I would look into make sure they’re set right for your weight and needs.
