I will keep you informed, as I hope its better than teh 750 miles a friend gets from his tuned WR450 Yam. Mind you he does do track days in that milage as well. I hope to better 1000 miles. Also heard that Maxxis Goldspeeds in the silver compound affoer equivelent grip with better milage.
I also have a set of Avon Distanza's to try out later and will let everone know what they are like.
So far I have tried the following tyres
Perelli MT60's. Standard tyres that I quite liked but teh second rear only lasted for 1900 miles
Koncorde remoulds real cheap (£45 per pair for cosmetic seconds). Good grip with the rear lasting 2500 miles, ok in the wet to.

I agree re the horrible , huge Number plate. Its a real bone of contention inthe UK with most bikers risking a fine for having a small one ( more inuendo pleeeeaasse). sadly as an upholder of the dreaded law , I have to stick with the nasty big bugger...
Get your questions in quick as I am just off to gran canaria , and anything after 2200 GMT will have to wait a fortnight
See you all soon.
