bruno22rf Posted May 3, 2013 Report Share Posted May 3, 2013 £300 a pair of tyres for a ZX9R??-did they see you coming?-plenty on the bay for far less-Diabalo's for my Gixer 1000 were less than £180 fitted and a new Yuasa battery this year was £37-fitted free in the service (£110 cash- oil+filter+air filter+plugs+bike picked up in a van and returned cos I refuse to get it wet)-pays to shop around and pay cash with no paperwork,you usually get a better deal in the winter when the shops are quieter.

-Mongrel- Posted May 3, 2013 Report Share Posted May 3, 2013 Bleeding expensive fitting on the tyres! £180 quids worth of rubber.... http://www.btyres.co.uk/continental/conti-road-attack-49 Maybe next time buy the tyres yourself and get them fitted. Shouldn't be anymore than 30 quid-ish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
