I just started dating this chick and I really like her. WHY does this have to happen NOW?!?
    With the way females have a habit of draining the wallet, you might have to put off the work on the bike for a lot longer than 3 weeks if you're that strapped for cash.

    haha I'm not that broke! Anyway here's what I ended up doing. Found some used Battlax BT45's on TM from a wrecker. All up they cost $150 and the front has 4mm and the rear 5.6mm. Bargain I thought and at that price I really can't justify spending $428 on a new pair of Sport Demons.

    It's a slight upgrade from my Dunlop GT501's, so fingers crossed I don't have to learn the hard way about riding on used tyres. So that means pay next week, I'll be able to get rid of this annoying rattle.

    Good to see you found a solution to address both issues. Just needed some lateral thinking.
