    Question Front tyre 120/60-17

    Yo! I'm looking for a used front tyre for my viffer, measurements are 120/60-17.

    I'm already using a used one thanks to chrislost but need another one to last me through xmas as my rear is only half used and I wanna wait to buy a set next year!

    I will consider any tyre with warrantable tread.

    Let me know what you've got and how much you're after!

    Or if anyone has a set at a good price I could be keen too.

    Cheers!

    Give Cycletreads a yell. I was in there on Sunday getting new boots for the RF - they have plenty of second hand tyres for sale.

    How much you wanting to spend? I've got a BT015 that should do the trick.

    where opinion holds more weight than fact.

    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.

    I got a pilot power front in 120/70/17. $60. Done about 5000km which was how long the rear lasted. Still got plenty of life left in it. I'm in papakura.

    Oh yeah would you be able to give an estimated thickness of tread remaining? Cheers.

    Good idea, may be able to pop in there early next week.

    Hmmm depends on the tyre :P, price would be relative to tread thickness and tyre condition.

    I thought you got a front Diablo from Phurrball about some months ago. What do you do? Do you do front wheel burnouts or what?


    If you can make it on Kiwibiker you can make it anywhere.

    Na I got a free one from Chris but it was probably borderline from the start . By my eyes it doesn't look too happy nowadays, especially as it's an ex race tyre!

    I have 1 in the shed will measure it in the morning , you can have it for nothing if its warrantable. What size is your rear I got a set of new Rossos for my boys CBR250RR but hes walking for a while , could do a deal on them. Cheers Toddy

    You've squared the middle off, and he's worn the edges, that is one funky wear pattern rofl.
