Wear bars in tires

Some of the newer tires are advocating different wear bars

Looks like to displace any gravel/rain/water if you go deep into a turn as well as channeling water when riding the bike normally.

But the tire doesnt look real...

Well in Motorcyclist magazine that tire had the numbers on it so I do believe the numbers are real.

The numbers are only on the demo models of the tire that the dealers get... Shows the areas of the tire with different rubber... They aren't on the production tires... But the chicken strip indicators are... Meant for knowing where you wear the tires...
