Reeesult.

Just won on ebay, a brand new 130/70ZR16 AV39SP Avon Azaro for the FJ for
£26.00. This will go very nicely with the 160/70/ZR16 AV46 Azaro I won
earlier in the week for £40.00. *Much* discount off retail price. Much
cheapness.
Also looking at the lack of tread on my current pair, new rubber is a 'good
thing'.

I've been getting no decent rubber action at all lately so you're a
lucky bastard and no mistake.

 

Nice one, eBay can be a winner. I won my CBR1000F (1992) for £550 5 weeks
ago.

Well done.

I'm lucky in that these radial 16" tyres are not used on many popular
sportsbikes these days. I think it's only early FJs and GPz900Rs which use
them. Funnily enough I seem to have a GPz900R on the drive too..

What size are you after? There's often a bloke round here who sells new
(modern) rubber through free ads in:

And early Blades, don't forget the early Blades.

I need a pair for the GS. I think the front is a 19", but the markings
on the tyre suggest 19 1/2" but I've never heard of a nineteen and a
half inch wheel before and the back's easy enough at 17".

Thanks, I'll have a look when I'm back from looking at my neighbour's
new flat;she's just phoned to say she's got the keys and do I want a
look. Well, you've got to oblige, haven't you?

Well that was quick!

 

Deffo a 19 in that case.
