Just wondering, are the pirelli tyres the world superbike and supersport guys use the same as the ones we get off the shelf??

Im assuming not, and they would be much better.

Not even close. In addition, there are different levels of tyre for different teams/riders (not that there's supposed to be). I heard some battling aussies were struggling to get the better tyres.

Nothing is as it seems.... allegedly.

Yeah thought so. Know a couple of fellas that know a couple of fellas in the US motocross scene and they reckon there biggest advantage from the common Lad is the tries they run. Full custom for the top riders from track to track.
