Re: Avon Storm vs Avon Storm Ultra
Well I just got a price for £113 fitted elsewhere, for the cost of an extra £5 in petrol. So Buckley can say bye bye to my custom.

Re: Avon Storm vs Avon Storm Ultra
Used Avon Storm ST's for about 3 years, awesome tyre, I got the Ultra fitted about 3 weeks ago, wore it in for ~60 miles then did 15 mins on track and performed perfect!
You can clearly see the dual compound (you can see the two lines where the tyre’s compounds’ are moulded together). With the centre of the tyre being a lot tougher, unsure on millage just yet. Perfect tyre for anyone riding on the road, i doubt anyone will need much more grip. Last edited by suzsv650; 14-06-10 at 07:29 AM. |

Re: Avon Storm vs Avon Storm Ultra
I've opted for Pirelli Diablo Stradas now, and the rear tread looks deeper than a tractors. Really impressed with them on the Versys and remember they were pretty good on my first SV, a K3 naked

Re: Avon Storm vs Avon Storm Ultra
Mr LPH promised me a new set of Storm Ultras for my birthday/Christmas as I'm still on the rubbish ones that came on the bike new. Now my elbow is finally on the mend and I can ride again we're going to get them done soon as I've read good things about them.
New tyres for my birthday, and I got him a sports rackand tail pack for his XJR for his birthday - who ever said romance was dead.
