I think you have summed it up perfectly there Fran, what you are saying is, if you want a good all-purpose tyre for cold/wet/commuting, get some Avons, if however you just blat around in the sunshine they will be a compromise(as I have said in a previous post).

I like the "cheese on toast" comment Fran. :rofl[1]:

Excellent description. :thumbsup:

Looks like I'll have to do some more playing with pressures then. Can't fault the Avons for grip. Just want to ride at 85 mph without the bike nodding it's head.

Next time we meet I'll let you try mine and you will see there is no wobble at all on mine.

While we are on the subject of tyres and pressures, what tyre pressures are you using Guv?

Also, can anybody recommend a good tyre pressure gauge as I've just checked mine on someones car tyre and it reads 6 psi difference to his gauge. Mine is an electronic keyring thingy and the make has scrubbed off. I did check out what other people thought about the pressure gauge before I bought it and it got 10/10 and 1/10 :confused3:. I'm looking for something I can put in my pocket, not something like the size of a brick.

28psi on the front 30 on the rear
