    Shinko street tyres from my old GN250

    I want to get rid of 2 newish tires that used to be on my GN250. The bike has been gone for several months now, but the tires are still here. So, before I start painting them and using them as flower planters, is anyone here interested in them?

    The front is a Shinko SR604 in the size: 3.00-18
    The back is a Shinko touring tire Tour Master SR732 in the size: 120/90-16

    They have been used by a wimpy beginner (me…) for a ride to New Plymouth, and some pootling along, and that was pretty much it. So they have done less than 1000 km. I got them new for NZ$ 170 in November 2012.

    Now they’re just in the way, so make an offer and pick them up (they are probably too narrow for flower planters anyway…).

    PS: The photos with the tires on the bike are from the beginning of last year. The other photos are from yesterday. Aside of the dust and the spiders I had to fight to take the photos there is not much difference...

    Put them on trade me.
    Ask $160.

    A GN would take 33 thou km to kill them so they are only 3% worn out

    Used GN parts are very hard to get in such good condition.

    Did I forget to mention they come without the GN attached?

    Jeepers I cannot believe they still make that front tread pattern. That was so 1979!

    Mr Mutabo here, I can sell you coke. Can you deposit funds into Western Union for me so money can be sent to my native homeland of Zimbabwe.
    In return I will send you coke and Cricket Players.
    God Bless
