Just looking at what options are available for slick track only tyres......
1) keeping with the 180/60 profile
2) option of the 190/55 profile
Just wondering what people were going with
In the UK does anyone know what tyres they will be using in the Tri options cup?
Cheers

What size is the rim on your rear wheel ? If it's a 5.5" stick to a 180, 6" is fine for a 190. Andy

Ducati cup is Supercorsa V3 treaded 180/60 rear. SC2 only for dry tyres and 190/55 rear wet SC1

I've only ever put slicks on the 959 once and they were superbike qualifying tyres, cos I could at a club meeting. SC0 rear 200 section and they felt like they made a difference around Castle Combe.
