the tar is left on the portion of the tyre you haven't used! which means that after the stuff was deposited you didn't use that part of the tyre.

I suspect the small puncture marks and tar was left by exposed rocks on the road surface which hasn't been cleaned by use...ie lean angle.

Your tyre is bleeding
2004 ZRX1200R
And on the seventh day Richo ended his work which he had made. Decided resting was for soft cox, straddled the REX and headed up the old road.
And it was good
