my mates got a 175bhp zx10r and he will be putting these on his bike next, he rates them that highly, and trust me he can ride (unlike me :lol: )
if there good enough for him there good enough for me. and at that price £135 the pair for a 120/180 thats almost like giving them away.
if i go for the 180 i'll probably try these guys because there closer to me. i might even ask if they have a fitting service.... :thumbup:

Ive just put 1k on my maxxis diamond ones. They are great. Actually feel better than my bt023s. Only had the rear slip twice when I was being deliberately stupid.

Store them in an a cool place wrapped up in a bin bags i was told it stops them sweating out the coating they have on them which can happen if left unwrapped in a warm room, should have the date on the tyre month and year i think

Don't take that as fact just pub whispers
