why are they so expensive ! Simon
They're only expensive if you pay for them. What you need to do is get some parents who run a bike business, then do a bit of work on their PCs now & again in exchange for an endless supply of free tyres. <fx: smug>
fumbled, fiddled and fingered: 55 quid ? http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/120-70ZR17-Mi...ryZ21669QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem http://tinyurl.com/738pb -- Steve Parry K100RS SE & F650 and a 520i SE Touring for comfort (not forgetting the SK90PY) http://www.gwynfryn.co.uk
thanks for the link, I just wanted a comparison. I don't know if it's cheaper/ better 'cos I need someone to fit it for me ! Simon
The Older Gentleman says... Correct. I've just bought a 190 and a 120 BT014 to go on my Gixer for 125 quid a pair. I didn't pull any trade strings either, I got them on eBay.
fumbled, fiddled and fingered: No you said initially "why are they so expensive !" Then "how much should they be then , for a cbr1000f front tyre ?" Nowhere, until now, do you mention a comparison. I'm assuming if you've got to the stage that you've bought a 1000cc motorcycle you would have had other bikes before, and if so would have an idea of running costs from those? -- Steve Parry K100RS SE & F650 and a 520i SE Touring for comfort (not forgetting the SK90PY) http://www.gwynfryn.co.uk
well my local shop quoted : 78 quid for bt-020 120/70 ( free fitting on a loose wheel.. ) fleabay is 74 inc. with fitting extra.. not worth it me thinks ! ( even if I buy two at a time.. ) PS/ sorry for the pointless post I was just killing some time at w*rk Simon
