    Bummer... what are Avons like these days? Then again most are probably concentrating on the larger capacity bike sizes.. not a lot of call for performance tyres in the FZR size now.

    As anyone bought tyres online and/or from the "Motorcycle Tyre Warehouse"

    Shipping is $25 Aust Post which seems reasonable for 2 tyres

    Are they usually shipped "wrapped" or just taped up together or wat?

    I reckon they'll come like this but shrink wrapped, taped or strapped together.

    Mmmmmmm Metzler goodness right there.
    A set of those will suit the Fizzer right down to the ground

    Just went for a spin out on the test track ...

    Went like the clappers
    No dead spots
    No chugging (fingers crossed it stays that way)

    :imtheking: :bowdown:

    New HJC helmet was very quiet too .... not the weather here for full riding gear though :superman:

    How old is the brake fluid? Should be done every 2 years.

    I like the Goldfren pads but I can't get them through work, Ferodo is my 2nd choice
