Tyre Temps Monitoring

• Ecer crashed because too cold Tyres ?

• Crashed because you forgot to cennect your Tyre Warmers to Power-Supply?

• Curious about the Relationship between Tyre pressure and Heat ? ?

• You've got an Interest to if your Tyre works inside the optimal range of Temperature  ?

• Or you want to find out a Relationship between Tyre Temps, pressure and wear?

• A bad Idea to Set free the full hp of a Bike at accelaration ( inside TC) out of the corner only when Tyre temp is in optimal Window ?
  
  
   

That's not new of course, at least not within professional leagues as GP.

But why shouldn't all the benefits be available for Hobby Racing or semi-professional Racing Teams ?

1. The Tyre is working optimal in a certain window only

2. Too low or too high Temps for a certain Tyre means less grip and more wear

3. Different Riding Styles and Skills of the Driver lead in different Tyre Temps, also

4. Different Tyres have different Temperature Windows , for different purposes

5. So everyone can find out the Tyre which is working best for HIM, as some Tyres only work when really used "hard", some opposite
    

IR-Sensor mounting
 

Below the Tyre Temps from first test Ride of my 1098 V3, and if you open the Thumbnail you'll see the raw wiring of Tyre Temp monitoring Sensors (at a MV Augusta ), they will be mounted on the hugger, with a small hole for the IR-Sensor:    or here, a mounting example :
