    check with the racers suchas Frosty and others who ride bikes like yours and you may be able to score a good deal from them, otherwise cycletreads is probably your best bet - especially on a sunday

    It's better to not pass and know that you could have than to pass and find out that you can't. Wait for the straight.

    Yep, I use 'Treads over the North Shore - and I ride up from Takanini to do so! Someone here recommended them to me, so I went and found out why they were good!

    Also Kerry at Motohaus is worth seeing. He's a little bit out west though so you may have to cross the bridge (shock! horror!)

    I recently put new tyres on my SV650s-cycletreads chch. Great service, advice and a good price. If Auckland Cycletreads is in the same league, you cant go wrong.

    Hey, thanks guys! Once again I am VERY impressed with the response from the bikers over here! Brilliant. I'll go to C'treads and see what they can do!
    NEXT dumb question though is does anyone recommend a Specific BRAND for the SV650s.? I've got Metzlers on at the moment. I have heard that BT-20's are a good one to get for commuting work etc....
    Cheers!
