[Tony.OK]

TradeMe is worth keeping an eye on,I picked up a set of New super corsa's for $430 delivered.Saw a set of Dunlop Qualifiers for $450 the other day.

AMPS price are still at, or under, RRP. But I have discussed the differences with management.
The others are discounting the guts out of them. Good on them, but you can't survive forever by doing that. (Unless you sell an awful lot of tyres.)

how long do these tyres last for on these big bikes? I complain enought that I have to payout $200 a tire and go through one every six months. (9-10000km) $5-600 a tire and I would be paying more on tires per year than what I paid for the bike.

Ok, on my GSX1400 I average 3500-4000kms per rear tyre. The last metzler Z6 rear was $390.00. The front averages around 6500-7,000kms and the last one cost me $265.00.

Darn good tyres though. Anything stickier and I would need a bucket to pick up the rubber behind me and reglue it to the tyres. Oh, I don't do burnouts either.

I guess $320ish a set for my peice of shit 20yo 750 is pretty good then?

Last around 10,000kms.

I should add, that if KB'ers identify themselves, I will try to sweeten a deal.

Jeez the cost

Welcome to the wonderful world of performance motorcycling. Sports bikes have a high price of ownership eh!

Got offered a great deal at Motohaus on a set of Conti Attacks, but something isn't right and Kerry can't seem to get hold of em. So I got fed up waiting, rode up to Cycletreads this lunchtime and came out with a set of Pilot Powers for a 'special on the day as yer here' deal
Top marks to Cycletreads and I know, I know you told me so.

I got a good deal from kerrin at boyds for some M3's .. geez they are a huge improvement over the beat up Michellen macadam's I had on

.. and I'm such a nana

I have found that I can try all the other shops in Auckland but the guys at Cycletreads always have the best prices and they fit them to the bike.

They also have the most tyres so I always can check what the options are.
These guys have got more selection than the rest of the shops put together.

Thanks guys for good prices and great service.
