never had to put tyres on any of my bikes yet....always had them sold before that stage!!

if i was needing some however, i would phone round the dealers (hursts, mccallens etc) with a few types of tyre in mind and get a few prices.
also depends on wether u want to take wheels off or go for the ride in, ride out option!
u could also buy off the internet (prob cheaper) and get them fitted sumwhere yourself.
theres so many tyres to choose from, i would start by reading through the tyres forum to see what these guys recommend first....
or maybe u know already!

I bought Metz Z6 from www.Steensonmotorcycles.com (http://www.Steensonmotorcycles.com) . He was £5 cheaper than everyone else for drive in and fitted tyres. Just got to run them in now. :cheers:

No. Pirelli & Metzeler are the same company, those two tyres are the same as it's possible to be.
