Come to New Zealand we pay more again you have deals over there for a set and thats what we pay per rear. The new bridgestone s20 $260nzd delivered from rocky mountain thats about 200 odd cheaper than here.
SPEED ISN,T EVERYTHING BUT IT SURE IS FUN.

In March this year Bazman (from Jake Wilson).......Michelin PR2's. I know that I had trouble with Rocky Mountain a while back, but from memory, Michelin & Dunlop told them to stop exporting, but that ban has been lifted from what I've been told.

every corner tells a story
I'm currently running Road 3's but I find the front tracks a bit.
I was thinking of giving the Metzler M5 Sportecs or Z8 Interacts a try.

Ok, so I loved the M5's they are the best tyre for confidence, 3712km on the M5's (probably should have changed them about 3000 thought)
but I just got the Z8's fitted today. Going to change my riding style a little as the Missus is buying a 250 next week and I won't be riding like I normally do, so I thought I would get something that will wear a little better. Metzeler Roadtec Z8 Interact claims best sports touring tyre crown - so I'll give them a shot. http://www.uk.ridexperience.com/2012/05/...yre-crown/

Did a run down to Tyalgum today, round trip of 306km. Tyres are now nicely ran in, it was a little hard at first not to treat them like the M5's.
I must say I am very happy so far, they do feel confident in the corners, I have not been leaning quite as much as before but I think that is more my mental state not wanting to rely on they too much. I'll post up some more as I do a few more rides. |
