I know, it sounds like a very subjective question.
This morning I went for a 30 minute ride in 40 degree weather, and every turn i took I could tell that my tires were cold and hard. The stock tires on my Ninja 250 stink anyway, from what I've been told, but I can tell a difference on warmer days when the rubber's softer.
How much riding does it usually take for your tires to get grippy? Or, how can you tell without finding out the hard way?
