Whats the going rate for a rear PR3 for the GTR fitted to the bike?
I paid £137.50 +VAT fitted and Balanced :yes:
Thanks, that a useful guide. My rear isnt going to last the 1300 miles or so we'l do to Scotland and back, but the front is fine. Must be cos i'm a FB!

Exactly. :mfr_lol: Somebody was taking the mick when they sold you the other tyre.
£250 for my PR3. :no: i live in the wrong contry
I've always paid around £160 in VAT for a rear PR3 fitted to a loose rim with new valve core and carcass disposal.
I use Universal Tyres in Billericay as they are bike friendly and knowledgeable.
As for Patrick being an FB, I guess that makes little ole me (26St, 365lbs, 160Kg) an FFB!!
At 26st you can be whatever ya want Boomer
I ain't arguing :mfr_lol: :tank: :help:

You only have to out run me and you are safe, which, lets face it isn't going to be difficult.
Besides I prefer to think of myself as a gentle giant :innocent: ninja :ninja: psychopath :gunsmilie: :banana: :banana:
Went to Kawasaki dealer today and at long last had TP sensors done and a re-call brake mod.
Rang Buckley Tyres before leaving the K dealer and tey had the PR3 in stock - £149 inc vat ride in ride out.

Poor fitter kept hitting his head on my lamp pole base and bracket!
That's a nice looking ramp, wouldn't mind one of those myself.

On the fast over 140 km h. Approximately 90 miles PR3 lose the directionality GTR 1400, we have a ((Effect sailing)) the cause is due to the cuts in the tire design.

That is strange. I have on numerous occasions travelled at speeds over 200 Km/h for extended periods with absolutely no problems.

M.G I think you are mistaken my friend :yes:
Sounds more like bad rear wheel bearings than bad tyres.
In fact, didn't your wheel bearings collapse and you had to have the entire rear end replaced?
Don't blame bad bearings on the tyre.
The bad bearings will cause the tyre to wear strangely so even after it was fixed the tyre would feel wrong.

M.G I think you are mistaken my friend :yes:
19,500 Miles made with 3 trains of Bridgestone BT 021, GTR 1400 motorcycles in perfect directionality, with Michelin PR3 on the bike lost GTR 1400 directionality above this speed (90 miles)
As photos consumption has been uneven tread, so do not defective tires.
Many GTRisti Italian with said PR3 complain that my behavior in relation to the GTR 1400 Bridgestone BT 021.
Peace and Well anyway!
MGvalerio. :popcorn:
Mmmmmmm, thats 2 of us that like the BT021 then :yes:.

Not true Alan, I'ts been cracking the flags up here today, I swooped majestically through the Dales today, went over to Wigan to let the dealer have a listen to a noise on the bike, came back through the Trough-of-bowland, called at the Bridge for a brew, and then gave it my all inbetween Ingleton and Hawes(remember that?) my tyres had nearly melted when I got back to Leyburn ( PR3s WOULD have melted :whistling: ) great day wall to wall sunshine. North of England, gods country where the sun always shines :banana: :yes:
