Got these tyre warmers with my trackbike and having some problems... The front one started smoking after being on for no more than 5 mins, looks like one of the elements has burnt through.. is this normal???
Yeah gonna nip back to the bloke today see what he ses, nice guy so hopefully ill get a refund of some sort?
hope so mate, but you bought it as a job lot personal right? sold as seen and all that?? fingers crossed for you though.
That usually is when they are left on and that lap onto each other my old diamond ones used to do this . I have moto gp ones now about £130 quid elastic makes them so easy to put on
No limits have got their own brand going now YT, not sure how the order status is, but they did say anyone ordering will have them brought to a track day of their choice. Some good feedback from users too by all accounts.
I have got some Diamond Racing ones and they are superb, not cheap, but they are worth it. Plus they get up to 95 degrees rather than 80-85 for most others. Diamond Tyre Heaters Seperate Front Rear
No, put them on the tyre then plugged them in, 2-3 mins later they started smokin! Its OK the guy has given me £60 towards a new set
Do you feel any more confidence on track having had them on or do you guys all just use them for longevity of the tyre?? i.e. less heat cycles
they are there really to stop you having to do 3 laps to get tyres warm . if you are in a 20 minute session on track you can waste a third of it warming your tyres up.
Thought it was that but I've read on other forums/sites that your tyres warm up fairly sharpish anyway
I can highly recommend to any one Holroyd Components Ltd. | Tyre Warmers, Tyrewarmer Products, Tyrewarmers, Racetech, RaceTech, Raceready, Race Ready British made and £99
No tyre warmers are there to save the tyre heating times. You can pretty much give it the berries from the off. Heating up a tyre by riding can take 2-3 laps, which eats into track time.
