hmm just went to check my tyre pressures for going back to work tomorrow after the easter break. Noticed the front Pilot Power has hit the wear bars on the right hand side of the tyre.... Strange, the left is fine. Oh, well 10800km not bad, will change it on Sat..
Then I check the rear, the Conti Road Attack I put on to go to the island in March...hmm, some of the centre wear bars are showing.. 6600km out of this tyre. Not great for a sports touring, but I did work it REALLY hard on the 3000k ride the other weekend. And it looks like these require the pressure to be high 40-41 to stop them from heating up too much.
***** that means I need a set of tyres, at a cost of about $550-570 fitted... Oh well, I can try out the conti sport attack front to go with the road attack rear then...
I hope to get the 250km out of them before I can book it in for the new tyres next Sat.
