Avons the same as you old chum!!!. I used to run Pirelli Diablos on my shhhhhhh Husky 610s and they were supposed to be good. Didn't get much mileage out of em and bloody slippery in the rain. Especially on those big white bus lane jobbies aaarrrgghhhhh..... You (Fran that is) told me about the Avons when I got my bike. Now I've done over 3000 miles on em and they still look like they'll do another 3000.... Weeeeeeeeeeeeee

Does anybody know what it would cost for a pair of Avon D SMs, for supply and fit? I have emailed the mobile fitter who advertises on this site. Just want a rough idea?

and �64 for the front
http://www.cheaptyres4u.co.uk/product.asp?ACTION=SEARCH

normally its anything between �10 and �15 to fit each

Got the OE Pirellis swapped for Distanzias yesterday at National Tyres in Altrincham (I live up north now). �173 for supply, fit, balance, and new inner tube with excellent service - they even re-waxed my chain.

Maybe a teeny bit more than other places but so worth a visit if you're up this way! 0161 928 3268 ask for Mark or Brian.

That's not a good price and as for chain wax, I hope it's not Castol Chain Wax. All that stuff is good for is attracting dirt to your chain and it also makes a mess of your rear wheel.
