kevan,

Good news matey. I think its the rear that a number of us have been struggling to get hold of. Do you know if Busters have any rears in stock at ll, or an idea as to when they will be getting anymore in?

Cheers

WB

when i contacted busters last week i was told they were getting a delivery of distanzia tyres friday 10th, so hopefully they now have some rears in stock as well.

From what I see on the forum, OEM tyres are illegal at around 2000 miles (ditto for mine but still on the bike....) and Pilot Roads should get around 5000 miles.

i got 3500 miles which i was pleased about .Am on Dunlops at the moment but after havin a few moments on Dunlop mutants in the wet cant wait to be back on Distanzias great tyre.

Update from AVON UK a few moments ago folks:-

Apologies for the delay in getting back to you but I have been advised today that the Distanzias are going into production w/c 8 December. They should be getting through to the dealers at the end of next week or w/c 15 December.

Cooper Tire & Rubber Company Europe Ltd

So, fingers crossed they are now true to their word, and we can all have a nice Xmas pressie or 2 :)

Cheers

I have been chasing them since June, so as and when they do arrive i will be buying a few complete sets, just in case theres no production until 2010 (lol)

Keith,

They suit both road and off road for both the X and R. In my opinion, by far, the best tyre for the XT660 by a long way. Great in the dry, excellent in the wet, and plenty of miles out of them.

Cheers
