Great pic's from Pirelli's recent World 24 Hour Duration Record.
They covering an 3191 miles on only one set of Pirelli’s new Angel ST sport-touring tyres!
At the Nardo test circuit in Italy, the endurance team logged an average speed of 132.9 mph, which in tyre-life terms equals 7,500 miles under normal road conditions.
They used a standard 2009 Suzuki Hayabusa and a second motorcycle, a 2009 Kawasaki GTR 1400. They also generated six additional records including a separate 12-hour World Duration Record.
The 15 international journalists and 12 testing staff each rode at least one of the two motorcycles for half an hour during the 24-hour period.
Some record!
Ride safe.
