My Sportec's got finished off on sunday via a nail lol so i'm in the market for tyres again. I can get a set of Continental Confiforces for £118 online anyone got any advice about buying tyres online? Got to figure out how to lift the front of the bike now.
Been buying my tyres online now for a couple of years. Just got a "pack of three", for £189 inc VAT, Bridgestone BT002 Type 4 soft, from FWR, for my track bike.
Bought two packs of three last year for R1, Pirelli Supercorsa's SC 1's, for the same price as above.
The SC 1's do not last all that long on the back, but do provide very good grip and stability. If you can, go for the Supercorsa Pro (SC 2) on the rear.
Sorry. "pack of three" two rears and one front.
If you don't have a paddock stand, you could try, first loosening the front wheel spindle and
caliper bolts, then place a trolley jack under the exhaust headers. jack must be placed opposite side of side stand. do not try this if you are not sure. I myself did this for years with no problems.
Hope this helps you.
Tatty bye.
