hey old post, saw it posted in another post for today, but i *think* and im no pro, but the excessive melting on your front is due to too low of tire pressure, and probably have a wimpy construction front (lo and behold, bt016--same tire i had similar/same problems with). further, i'm willing to bet you're a football player built type of guy, not a pedrosa type.

the rear looks pretty spot on with pressure, looks like your suspension is sorted well too.

again, i'm no pro what soever, but i went through similar issues with my last few track days. talked to a guy i know who's an mechanic for ama yamaha sbk and he pointed me in the right direction. try bringing the tire pressure up bit by bit in the front until you can find a good balance with feel--too high you'll get a little less feel, and substantially less traction. i know theyre really soft and sticky tires, and in that respect theyre GREAT, but they're a little too soft for some.

if you can swing it, i highly recommend swapping up to bt002/3rs' (so you wont need tire warmers to save the heat cycle life span). different construction, much stiffer carcass, but you're rewarded with MUCH better feel.

then again, if these tires feel good to you, stick with what you got, it's all about being comfortable out there
