Finally had some riding weather here , managed to get a couple of hundred miles on the rear tyre so she's got a lot more grip now and I've got a lot more confidence in the rear end:icon_banana:
Here's some pics

You know of course they've sold you the hypergrip tyres,
(Judging by the colours on the stripes,) but they only last about 500 miles............

I did not even know that a compound option was available for 020's .... just took a quick read and I cant find any mention of an option for them ??
I use 020's on the rear as well and they sure last a bit more than 500 miles ...:icon_razz:
Think we need more info uncle Pete :icon_couchhide:

Hawkwind: Just be glad you've got some good weather. Down here it's been -4c a couple of mornings and the roads just don't get any warmth in them at all. The bendy way home is pointless at the moment as it's too close to 'roo time, and I just don't trust the grip on those cold roads. Enjoy it while you can you blokes it the North.
Shadow: That was bloody funny!...mean though..
