Bad luck for Casey Stoner (and Dani Pedrosa). After they were suffered with the chatter issue on their bike, now they face the same issue on the front, with the new Bridgestoner tyre. Casey Stoner said after the Catalunya test that the new front tyre has created more chatter in front.
"It's been a long day and we had a lot of things to test. We were in and out of the box a lot and each time we had something new, something different, to try and resolve the issues that we've been having.", said Stoner.
He continue, "We didn't work on set up at all, we just tried everything we could think of to reduce the rear chatter. To a certain degree we seem to have improved it, which is a positive step for the future, but until we get to the next track it's going to be hard to tell. It's still there to a certain degree, so we still have work to do but we've definitely made a step forward."
HE said again, "The new front tyre has created more chatter in the front, we don't like it but we'll make our bike work around it".
