Tyre advice please

[Irish in Oz]

Don't worry Kiwi's all sorted I'm doing the Oxley next week, already packed to go.

[Kiwifruit]

Be sure to have a great time......I see the rear peg down, you taking the boss too ?

Cheers Bundy07, I just thought it was a bit taller in the cross section than a 50.  Different brands definitely do have different profiles though.

Nice option to have them already pre-scuffed.

Hey Irish, is Chris going to join you guys?  Lives in the shadow ya know, - don't see him much on here.

[Sweaty]

Have a great ride Jeff  You could probably do the Oxley with your eyes closed now mate.
Yep, keep an eye out for Rogues, he is hard to see though, as he is always in the Shadow.

enjoy your ride Irish. i have no idea why the difference in angels, heavier load i guess. certainly wasnt paying out, just pirelli advice i used. cant really see how it matters. the old michys, i remember well. had a48 on old ducati, worked fine. replaced with a49, went up same road, bike would hardly turn, they were crap. put a pirelli phantom on, all good. just a dud tyre the 49. were soon replaced, mustve had a few complaints. anyway, enjoy that ride.

And this is why A spec could be better than B, well on some of the roads I ride.
KF the boss is back in Oz for 3 months so she will be dinky.
KC didn't see or hear from him last two times so I guess won't see him this time, staying at Port Mac.

Hopefully I see you & Charlene at Jerry's tomorrow Jeff. We can discuss tyres.

[grog]

enjoy your talk you two blokes. lets know the conclusion.

There will be a conclusion Grog but I won't have a clue what it is. Unfortunately Jeff doesn't come with subtitles & Charlene is even harder to understand.

Well we met up with Snapey at Jerry's this morning he didn't have a burger as he is on a diet.
My bike went very well with a A spec through the Yarramalong Valley be I did have a pillion being Charlene.
Anyway i have come to a conclusion about the tyres
1. If Snapey keeps dieting he will need C spec.
2. I don't need B spec and if didn't read it on the tyre I bet you wouldn't even know.
3. If I don't have a pillion this is my solution.

[grog]

Great answer Irish, clever. I agree about load rating on Angel, id never notice any diff. Stronger has to be better.

[KiwiCol]

Irish needs the A spec version to carry his wallet!!

PR4 are good, tried them on a bike I no longer have, PR3 not so. On the 14 the PR2s are plenty good enough, been using them for years with no complaints.
GTs not needed on the 14. Yes heavier than many but not that heavy. On my Pan I have to use the GTs
