Chicken strips (motorcycle tires)

WP:NOTDICT. Unsourced neologism. It is very hard to find any use of this term, even in an article about motorcycling, that isn't about food. It is fundamentally meaningless and silly, which is why no motorcycle mechanics nor riding technique books mention it. The best claim to notability might be its humor value as some nonsense lore, but not enough writers find it funny enough to give us something to cite. I only found one.

 * To be fair, I found a few other references, with some digging:
 * There's also this 2006 Cycle World (issue unknown) snippet, also humor: "CHICKEN STRIPS NOT SOLD HERE. I can't think of anything more thrilling than hunting squids on track day. are few and far between. ..."
 * I created an entry on Wiktionary for this.--Dbratland (talk) 18:33, 10 July 2009 (UTC)
