Can anybody tell me where I might source a set of these in the UK?.
To suit a STD TZR 250
100/17 & 130/17

I always used to deal with SMD for my Avon racing tyres so Im sure they should have something suitable for your bike.
Cheaper than going direct to Avon too.

Also try Ken Inwood - he supplies loads of tyres to the paddock at most race meetings. Hersham racing I think he calls himself.

Mik doesnt want race compound tyres tho does he?.... although Im sure we could persuade him/her otherwise

Of course he wants race compound tyres. We all do. They're good for you. My old grandmother told me that. Like Spinach, but they taste nicer.

Thanks fellas.
It's wearing wheelbarrow tyres right now, they look set to outlast the bike by around 175 years.
I used to swear by the am22/23 track formula on my 350 and 500 YPVS years ago and it seems they were the dogs do-das on the TZR.
My TZR riding friend doesnt give a toss whats on it, as long as theyre round. But, his confidence is growing and he'll soon be ditch bound if I dont find some.

Thanks again

Mik
