Tyres, just had a front and rear fitted in Taunton by these guys Metez Tourance £205.00 ride in ride out fitted on the bike, free hot drinks.

Just give them a call to tell them what tyres you want they will get them for you the next day and arrange a fitting time for you, tell them that you are from the UKGSer BMW site and they will look after you.

They are on the Cornish way industrail estate just off Wellington Road behind National Tyres. link to directions below

that is the cheapest I could find on ebay £148.00+7.00p+p £155.00 plus fitting on the bike would be £30ish so total of £185.00.

I paid £200.00 £15.00 more to keep the local business alive is a fair trade off for me

Yes, not long now, was going to go on the tyres that I had on but decided that I would be pushing my luck they had 3mm of tread left on them having done 8.5k which is not bad for the battle wings, but minimum depth over the water is 2.5mm so 3000 miles on .5mm is not going to happen
