NorCal FZ6
Just some dude
Hello. I need some input for some of our more experienced riders. I have a 2009 FZ6. I bought in late March with 0 miles. The tires on it are Bridgestone BTO20s. I am a little nervous about these tires. Ya the bike only has a couple thousand miles. However the bike left the assembly line in November 2008. I'm thinking these tires are somewhat old regardless of minimal miles. So without putting my self at risk or causing injury to myself. I would appreciate some input. Should I replace thes tires? A fellow rider of mine said just replace them, of course to be on the safe side. He claimed if you can put a finger nail in them and they barely leave a finger nail mark, there most likely too hard and to old.
Could use some help. I would hate to throw a set of tires on a new bike. But I would also hate to bite doo, doo going down the freeway or on a country road.
