Best tyres?
 
Just got my first sv650s today!! Love it, but it needs new tyres. Any recommendations that don't cost too much as I spent all my cash on the bike

what riding do you do on the bike? weekend blasts, touring trips, commuting?

usually shortish trips/occasonal blast, but did a trip to europe on the front and feels good. done at least 1600miles and still look as new

Sorry. BT023's. BT016's were great in the summer but lasted about 3000 miles.

PP 2CT's are a pretty decent price at the mo. For fairly moderate riding, you could see 6-9k on a rear (yes it is possible)
