Feedback on tyre issues from exhaust heat?

80shilling · Mar 4, 2015

Does anyone here have some feedback on whether the heat from the exhausts, creates an issue with overheating the rear tyre?

I was looking at an 1199 and the exhausts come REALLY close to the rear tyre.

Comments and theories gladly accepted.

good thinking! thought about that as well and then quickly forgot about it.

like with the overall heat thing on this bike - move it fast enough and you won't have to worry about it.

One of our local tracks is basically Hell's furnace in the summer; temperatures are regularly 105 - 110 degrees in the shade and tyres take a beating - I'm hoping the Panigale 1299 doesn't exacerbate the issue.

Cheers.

This'll be bad news for the 1299, if so.
