Original post has fallen into the archives, so I'll just post this up anew.

This, it turns out upon inspection by a trusted mechanic and weekend racer, is not a bad tire...





What it is, is just a cut/scratch in the tire. Endemic to [lightweight] sportbikes, we'll get and see these cuts when a tire has skipped & spun over pavement on either acceleration or hard braking.

Self induced. Just an indication of my hard riding that day...

Live & Learn. Add to our collective knowledge.

That is a bad tire. Nothing to do with the cut. If it says "Dunlop" on the side, then you should replace it ; )
