[Ducati] Using a tire after wreck

[John M. Carruth]

Don't.
It may have sustained some damage to the cords, it may be out of round, it 
may be a number of things. Get a new one, cheap insurance. Tires are the 
most important component of your bike IMHO.
I recommend MEZ6s for street use. They are on all three of my bikes.
