You can get a Shinko 757 150/80 for $230. And get a lot better grip, mileage and steering response

Can't say about my fantastic rear cos OP didn't want to know how much better grip I get than the lousy Metz that gave me 6,000 km of slip sliding


Sorry the little in me made me do it

Thanks Hans I did check the Shinko a while back mate, I was referring to prices generally, including our living expences , no doubt there is the a Carbon tax in there somewhere

As for your fantastic rear tyre that is.. Im glad it works for you..

I wanted to try the BR front and rear match, although the Avon front has been great so its a difficult choice. But the Grinning will compensate

8000 miles on my Metz. Running a BS Excedra now with 5k on it and its starting to wear down pretty good already. Opening up the pipes and adding the KandN had alot to do with that though...

Yea Mittzy but its finding someone over here to fit bike tyres for a reasonable cost or they say they are busy but you can leave it with us, then $80 to 100 because it was so time consuming..

Dennis Kirk in the US sometimes has good deals as well..
