hello and help
 

hi all, just bought a blue K3 today, 1st proper road bike in about 17 yrs.
currently green lane on an XR400.
what a difference, couldn`t ride round corners to start with, totally different to trials bike. last road bikes were kawa 750 turbo, and fz600 engine in xj550.
so today i stayed on the back roads till i got the hang of it, and was having fun within an hour :)
being used to a thumper the engine is a gem, lots of low down, and engine braking, brakes are good, but feel like they would benifit from braided hoses.
think i am gona like this bike.
anyway the help is this, where in chelmsford do you go for bike tyres, its got Diablos on which I will stick with ( :) ) for now. does anyone do a wheel removale service if you just take the bike in ?
cheers all, Phil

Most of us go there

Good& quick Ride in Ride out service. reasonable priced... i guess.

cheers, thats not to far.
used to use one on on springfield rd near the prison, but you had to bring in just the wheel, think it was national, are they still doing bike tyres?

Not trying to be funny but are those the prices they really charge, if so they seem a bit expensive to me, my son paid £165 fitted for a pair of Z6's at a place in Colchester.

Just curious.

Lat year I paid £165 at motorcycletyresuk for the pair of Roadattacks fitted.

They where the cheapest in the area at the time.

They are now gone up £20.

That tyre place next to the prison wanted £165 just for the tyres.

If you don't mind riding into london:
