Welshy.......
Been thinking of going down the same route myself (sellin' the VTR and buying a Tuono).
How does insurance/service costs and service intervals compare?

TIA, John.

RRs will stick better than 010s or Racetecs,but you will compromise on wear,was considering RRs when I went for my tyres fitting and was told that I'd be lucky to get 2000 miles out of an RR rear.

Have used 010s in the past,bloody good grip/wear compromise.
On reccomendation from local bike tyre supplier I've just fitted a pair of Metzeler Racetecs,feel really good,bike seems to turn much tighter,so far so good.Been told to expect 4000+ miles from a rear.

£200.00 fitted on bike.

Clear indicators

Castle Motorcycles in Castleford will do you some.
Got me a pair of mini-stalk indicators with clear lens,and a pair of flush fit with clear lenses for the front(incidentally they do look well on a 'blue ' storm).
