Make sure you do your sums correctly - buying a set of tyres mail order to save some £'s could actually cost you as your local dealer will charge you £££ to fit them. Get a quote from your dealer first

I used motorcycletyresuk.com, i/e/ Moto-Care London. These guys are in Romford. Great service and nice guys too. Mail order price is £177 and I had mine fitted to loose wheels for £207.
Did a good run on Sunday and they feel great, bike feels like a different bike now.
