Aye Colin...all a kin think is , ye must have had bad luck,,there noi worse than any other tyre that i know off...ave never had a puntcture on any of ma X`s ave had 2 on ma R`s. over time mind ye... ive done the west highland way on a X twice an never had a puncture over all they rocks an stuff... I always carry that foam stuff wi me...ye never know when ye`l need it..

so wheres yer favourite routes around eastkilbride. or further a field ... theres plenty back roads around east kilbride eh.. out the strathaven way..towards Kilmarnock...tae Hamilton an down towards the leadhills. have ye done any wheelies ??? if yer not worrying about top end speed get yersel a 14 front sprocket...quicker acceleration mid range grunt ye only miss out on 5 mph an the bike will do 105 easy... but these bikes are better off around the 80ish mark,, on the trailies its not about speed its about Torque. i have a xjr 13 aswell now theres a Torquey bike
