Just interested to see who uses what tyres, where they purchase them from and what price they pay for either a set or a rear tyre... I got given a set of bridgestones to try this year, the new V01 slicks after using the metzeler slicks K2 for 3 yrs.. I love these tyres, thought they were just as good or even better than the K2's, and cheaper.... I can get them at the start of the year for €250 and after march for €270, a rear tyre set me back €150 during the year... Rain tyres are also the bridgestone rains, wouldn't want anything else, best rain tyres ever! I get mine from a local garage, no where really in belgium that does cheaper tyres.... I get all my stuff from here So what do you use, where from and how much do you pay...
Only a road rider here On me R6 i used Michelin Pilot Power 2ct - great in all conditions n felt very stable even at full lean n pelt n always gave good feed back. Get me Tyres from Kwik fit ( was called two wheel tyres ) Great Barr, last time cost me £240 fitted Only done 1600 miles on the Blade but will prob go for the Pilot Road 3 n ger them from same place
I always get racetech or supercorsa scrubs from fleabay or trackside... never cost me more than 50 sheets a set
Dunlop or Metz Slicks £300 Metz Raceteck K2 treaded £250 Dunlop Wets £ Dunno, not worn em out yet as they came with the bike!
I run Dunlop d212gp on blade these are around £300 a set 200 rest really good tyres . Gonna use supercorsas on the race bike next year around the same price
On track used the Dunlop d212 gp which were a fantastic tyre will use these next year when I start racing as I can't use slicks been a novice .Just back from Jerez where I was on Dunlop kr108 and kr106 which were fantastic and the tyres I will use doing trackdays ,both pricey tyres at around £300 but well worth it . Tyres from James at Infront Motorcycles Chester | www.ifm-moto.com always seems to be the cheapest when I ring other companies.
What's the difference between the 4NHS and the 5NHS on the Dunlop Slicks? Is the 5 just a softer compound?
