Been told I need a rear tyre for her , any brands that wear better than others and where to go to get one .
Thank you in advance Geno
 
Hi Geno,
dunno if you got sorted or even where to direct you for a supplier in NI , but I trust Bridgestone Exedras on my GL1800 over Avon Cobras.
The Avons last longer but are not as good in the wet (my opinion) while they're both fine in the dry.
Check out Ebay and there's plenty of choice there to help making your mind up, but reckon most tyres these days are just fine, just down to personal choice.
 
Even a brand new Maxxis will be Miles and Miles better than a nearly worn out tyre

No matter what breed it is

Also ignore the tyre pressures in your manual and check them online !!!

Also Also How many miles a year do you do on the Whang?? 5 year life on a a tyre (Allegedly :aidan )
 
Not a lot of miles , less than 1000 , where can I buy Maxxis and get fitted .??

You have misunderstood Geno

What I meant that any half decent tyre will still be miles better than a worn or very old tyre

I think giving Hurst Sydenham, Geoff Kernaghan or East End or Crossans
