| I got mine from Tyre Tec trading. £87 for front and £97 for rear. Peter was a great help. I asked for some that were as recently made as possible so he ordered them fresh from Avon UK. Front was made a few weeks ago and the rear in May. The best prices I could find. | |

| Just been looking for a new rear tyre for my m800 and for the life of me I can't find any 15 inch 170/80 radial tyres so on the advice given on here I have opted for a set of Avon Cobras.
Really only wanted a rear tyre as my front has plenty of tread left but at £166 for the pair I suppose I can live with having a matching pair | |

| Been using Avons since the roadrunner days of the 1980's. Super Venoms on all my cruisers, storm and roadrider combo on the muscle bike, never had a problem. Riding the stock Suzuki supplied tyres on my brand new c800 and to be honest haven't had a problem with them. First tyre change will see Avons' introduced. Out of interest, mate of mine is running on Metzelers...... bloody expensive but damn do they hold the road. | |
