Stock dunflops on my ninja were pissing me off.
I went out and bought some nice pirelli tires:

Went to the local fairgrounds, walked into the administration office, asked them nicely if i could wear my tires in there, got a yes and off i went.

Here’s the result at the end of the day, almost no chickenstrip.
Not looking directly from the top of the tire virtually almost NO chickenstrip! You can also note that the chickenstrip is right near the edge of where the tread starts to end Not bad for a day’s work.
