1 Metzler Z6 4mm tread (170/60 ZR 17) - SV650.org

24-03-09, 05:32 PM

Hello, I have a Metzler Z6 160/60ZR17 rear tyre for sale. I had a screw through the centre of the tyre on Sunday and the RAC temporarily patched it. I have since ridden it 100 miles. Today I took it to the garage and although they said the plug could be replaced with a permanent one, I opted for a new tyre as I'm a cissy :P The tyre has 4 or 5mm of thread left and I'm wondering if anyone would like to buy it?

I'm looking for 35 pounds delivered.

Better be quick if you want it as I'm chucking it Thursday!

Its standard sv650 fitment by the way.

Cheers
James

I think its duel compound. I was playing with it the other day, running you finger across the tyre and you can feel it gets alot stickier towards the edge.
