Nope, a set of Bridgestone T30's Smile

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 Wink

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 Smile

Doesn't rust or tarnish, stays like new....going to look great with my new discs



Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - midden - 26-02-15

So copper slip not needed then?


Re: what did you do with your fazer today ? - Dead Eye - 26-02-15

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  Big Grin
