PR4s all the way. I've just rolled 15,000km on my current set and still pretty good. I did 100,000 km on PR3s and was averaging 20,000km a set

Thanks Brandon!

After being caught out with work for the past couple weeks I finally managed to drop in to arrange getting my pr2s bought and fitted........Gone!
Tried Cycletreads.........Special offer is now OVER!

Looks like I missed out and will now have to decide whether I wait and save a bit more to get some pr3/4 or go backwards and look at a cheaper tyre.....

And after todays nightmare with the braided brake lines, I am considering ending it all...............and buying a harley

You will end up spending a forty on a Harley.
Have you thought about buying a set from overseas and then just getting them fitted here. Used to be cheaper that way in Aus

Unfortunately not many countries will ship down here , one look at US sites makes ya weep

[mynemesis]

Don't worry Brandon I won't be buying a Harley for at least another 50 years mate

Looked overseas but with shipping and duty it's not that great a saving for the time you wait.

Yep snooze too long Spokes! Bloody employment sux!

As for braided lines.....nothing should be hard if they send the corrwct threaded banjo bolt!!!!

Employment pays for our bikes and toys for our bike. I've spent thousands on bike bits over the years. Shame about the import tires. Is that cheap tire place still in Takapuna?? They used to be good

They are not good anymore. Cheaper places to go.

I've sent an email to cycletreads but that was late today. I'll give them a call and talk to the fella I was recommended to talk to weeks ago by a helpful KB member.

Employment though can suck my chuddies! Sux double when you can't tell the boss to go screw himself and just walk out on one of these good riding days. I am the boss

You need to keep an eye out, picked up a pair of barely used Z8s on the weekend for $100. They didnt suit the guys bike.

Sharp price! I think the last PR 4's I had on the old bike were close to $700 fitted from Drury Performance Centre. I still see they're claiming much better life than PR3’s. Certainly not my experience with 2 pairs. Great tyres though.

Any better than road 3s?
