Give yourself time then before you write off the tyres - maybe get Jeff to go out and scrub them in nicely for you?

Yup - he is 14 months now - walking and babbling well - damn they grow fast!!

Tell me about it, last week i was buying sanitary towels for my daughter and it nearly mad me cry, only seems two minutes since i was buying her nappies. And that was within a couple of days of my 40th birthday, god they make you feel old!!!

So whens he getting a little playmate then??

No brothers and sisters yet as Mrs Skip got accepted onto the GTP - a bit unexpectedly as she has tried twice before and failed. So that's basically 18 months we have to wait. Its a shame but its too good an opportunity to turn down.

Oh wow, she has done well to get on that, good on her

Got stradas on my SV and haven't had any problems with them, although i've not ridden much in the wet with them apart from once when it was torrential rain and i was taking it really easy.

Might be pressures, theyre at 39 and 44!! Im going to bring them down a bit i think...

run mine at 33f 36r and they seem fine managed to find a pirelli site and thats what they recommended for the sv, just looked for the cbr and all the tyres listed seem to be at 36f and 42r so there a little high http://www.pirelli.com/tyre/ww/en/mo...ontent/fitment

Yep, nothing wrong with Z6's

Think lowering the pressures might help, as the contact patch will be bigger and the tyre will be at its optimum shape

At the moment you're trying to ride a rubber razor blade

Yep, that was the conclusion I came to!! Thanks xx
