Big fan of the Avon ST. They use a tri-compound which I like. Get all mine from Rocky Mtn Moto mentioned above.

Good for Iron Butt


Still confident feel for this

That road looks like Hayabusa heaven.

Use Rocky Mtn myself. Good fast service.
Tim what are you doing on the wrong side of the road.///

Hey there Dai.
Hit me up if you're keen for a ride. I'm Southside Brissy.

[Dai.]

I'm usually up Mt Nebo/Glorious every Sat and Sun. I'm up for a ride whenever to where ever.

Tomorrow is taken,the old man and myself are heading out for lunch at Wivenhoe dam.

Just put on a pair of Michelin Pilot Road 3s. Its amazing how the feel changes when you put on new rubber. First Michelins ever on a bike for me, so it'll be interesting to see how they go once the shine is off.

UPDATE: Shine is off and still seems fine. Much better in change of direction over the Bridgestones. A bit like when I switched to Pirelli Diabolos after Bridgestones on my old FZ1, feels much quicker in steering.

Dai , what colour is your Busa ? Is it the red 2012 .
I did an early run over Mt Glorious this morning to Fernvale and back with a "gang " of mates. Were you by yourself standing beside your bike at the T junction other side of mountain.
I was on my B King with a black GSX14, red Blackbird, M109 and a black BMW
Next time I'll try to make time to stop and say hello.

Nope wasn't me. I was up there around 10:30ish,i do own a Red busa with a ventura rack on it. I wear either red or grey camo pants when riding so i should be easy to spot.

Surely if you're in your Camo pants you won't be spotted at all.

Knew someone would say that.

I'm planning to use my OEM's up on the normanville ride, so will probably be looking for a set after we get back, following this with interest, I also use springwood suzi for the coffee shop and where I bought the bike originally, did they say what sort of wait the backorder was for the Michelin's?

Thompy.

Ps: i'm out south east Brissy as well, always looking for fun rides.

Give Mono a phonecall re Michelins. http://stores.ebay.com.au/Motorcycle-Tyre-Warehouse
He was saying they are in short supply.
He is listed on this site as a vendor.

Thanks for that heads up Pa !, I hit their website and liked em on FB so i'll get the deals leading up to the impending replacement, i'll call when i'm closer to knowing when.
