Default SV650S K4 Tyres

Hi,

I'm coming up to the point where I need to replace my tyres. Doe anyone know a decent place in Essex that'll sort me out. Tried Alpha in Westcliff where I bought the bike and they want to charge me £138 + Vat + Fitting for just the rear. I need a pair so any info would be greatly appreciated.

Pete

What do you recommend? I'm a commuter and just got 4500 miles out of my stock sport maxx that came on the bike.

Yes go for the Conti road attacks!

Best value for money. Have a look in the tyres Section on the forum.

www.motorcycletyresuk.com/ always have the conti in Stock.

I got 8,200 miles from my rear 020, which still had a fair bit of life left. Got 11,500 miles from the 010 front but that was seriously bald on one side.

I've used http://www.motorcycletyresuk.com/ and http://www.focusmotorcycletraining.co.uk/ in the past. Both recommended and cheap, but Focus was a touch cheaper for my current set of 014s.
