Motorcycle Tyres UK
 
Right, I've got to find motorcycle tyres uk on saturday... anyone got any tips? Their map looks like the road adjoining the a12 isn't actually adjoining it... :lol:

I COULD look it up on streetmap I suppose but still, any hints and tips that aren't obvious would be welcome. :D


... hopefully my back tyre will last til sat... :?

Ping i have no idea, but what tyres ya getting?

Ping 08-11-05 02:32 PM

Conti Road Attacks 'cuz they look kewl. :lol:



Edit: alright.. and they're cheaper than Metz Z6s... :P

If it's the one I'm thinking of the road runs parallel with quite literally the kerbside barrier and a pavement separating it from the A12. And the turning is actually straight off the a12.

If it's not the one I'm thinking of then I have no idea.

In brief then, whereabouts along the a12 are we talking here??!!

It is adjoing it. I believe there may even be traffic lights there and everything. Good luck. That "multi map click here" link under there's is a better guide... :wink:

I went there last year for new tyres. Great service and bloody fast too.

I too went for the Road Attacks - v. good choice.

He hates them. Big time. Why? This is a good question, and one that has not been fully answered. I love 'em, other peeps love 'em, but not our Viney, or (strangely :lol: ) BBC. But naturally they're entitled to their opinion (even if they are wrong :lol: ).
