Maxxis Tyres

Cheers for that. Thats more than enough for me really. I've only done 5500 miles in the last 3 years so i'm more than happy knowing that, especially at £100 for a pair.

I'm not sure on exactly what model it was, other than it was their sports touring tyre. If yours is also a s/t type then expect a similar mileage. a full on sports tyre will obviously not last as long. I'd say at 100 quid that is a very good price as you don't really do so many miles. no need to splash out on top of the range stuff.

A mate off mine has a pair on his cbr 600f,seems to do everything he asks &wear quite well.HTH
