I got a quote from Mark ?193 fitted for a set of BT021s. Cwmbran motorcycles offered me ?170 fitted for Conti Road Attacks but people are buying Michelin Pilot sports from busters for ?113 (with VARAEDO10 discount) and getting them fitted (like me). If i got to Cwmbran motorcycles it'll work out at ?153.

Just a quick update, rang MG Tyres and got the following quotes(Includes front and back tyre, coming to my house or work, full fitting and balancing);

Michelin Pilot Road 2 - ?236
Conti Road Attacks - ?195
Metzeler Z6's - ?220
Bridgestone BT021's - ?205

Seems quite pricey compared to some others prices ive seen on here.

They also will fit both tyres if i decided to source the tyres myself, for ?50 all in....

mmmmmm...

phone for prices on the other 2 as his book was out of date

i had road attacks, which seemed good, but for the few quid extra i would go for the z6's

i can come with you to hold your hand if you want
