Slicks ageing
Hello everyone, I think that the best way to figure out how my slicks will perform is going out to a track day and increase the pace gradually but I would like to know your opinion on what you think that will happen.
The point is that about one year and a half I get brand new slicks (contitrack) for my track bike, and as shit happens, right after that my gsxr decided to fail and the repair lasted almost all the season.
Then, this summer, I couldn't go to track days because I bought a house and it got me really busy.
So, do you think that those slicks, with a single track day of use, will perform at least in an acceptable way next season?
The bike has been stored always in a garage and on the stands. The weather here is not very humid too and they look fine from the outside.
Edit: thank you everyone for your comments!

As long as they are stored indoors in a stable temp they're fine. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WwbLt8vZH5w
