New tyres done : )

Thanks for the advice guys. I got.....

Round black ones as suggested, couldn't find any brown ones??????

I went with the Michelin pilot powers for $465 fitted. Figured they were
better than the Bridgestone BT014, and Dunlop 208 sports, for the same sota
money.. Some shops wanted to charge me $550+ for the tyres fitted. So I
recon I got a good price.

I'll let ya's know what I think once I scrub them in, and see how they ware.

First impressions.. they turn in nicely.

Regards

Andy.

 

You'r right, they don't seem to be popular.

Glad to see you followed my advice.

How did you figure they were better?
If you wanted long wearing why didn't you get Michelin Pilot Roads for
the same price?

I'd have to agree, those PP are fantastic.. used the stock Pirelli Diabolo's
on the 1000RR for one day at the track, they were instantly useless in the
wet and hard as a rock afterwards, making the bike buck badly.... The PP
have had the same treatment and they're still like new, brilliant wear...
I'll be buying them again!

If you only ride your bike half as much they'll last 12 months. BARGAIN!
