Nope, a set of Bridgestone T30's :)

Found a fitter right next to work and I'll pick them up in about an hour or two for when I head home... yes I got in to work very late today ;)

Once I'd removed the tyres, I could tell how much they had squared off and suddenly the dodgy cornering made a lot of sense. I'm looking forward to getting back out on the bike and not having to second guess the rubber :)

Surely it's possible that whatever the titanium bolts are screwing in to aren't made of titanium... so there is still a slim rust chance. Can't see anything wrong with using copper slip and I don't think it would increase the likeliness of the bolts un-screwing

obviously they won't be screwed in to titanium,  just wouldn't imagine there'd be a seizure problem, no harm using copper slip. I just don'tfancy the taste in my mouth when i'm kitted out with titanium implants  :D

A run down to Weymouth for fish and chips today. About 3 hours getting down there, stopped for all of 40 minutes, then back again. Got back just before it got too dim for the dark visor - forgot to take a clear one  :rolleyes

Two things Noggy. No, it's actually filthy, just doesn't show on photos.

And 2., I always take shots of it's best side now  :lol  I replaced a fairing bracket, bashed the main one more or less straight....fixed!  :)
