I guess I finally noticed the damage my front tire took on the way to Laguna.... 140+mph sweepers did this.
If you don't know what a "cupped" tire is, just look at the tread surface. If you run your hand down the tread, you will feel (and be able to see) that the tread goes up gradually, then back down on the next piece. Looks like the scales on Godzilla..... heh.
I am not concerned, it only rides on the center now. 1/4 mile at a time.
But, if your front tire is getting like this and you do a lot of road racing or just regular riding, get a new tire!
Check your tires....... or else.
