What did you dislike about the ones you tried?

Those 3 I mentioned were on previous bikes but the PR3 were probably my favourite to use and the M7RR a close second.

Apologies for my response earlier in the week, I was having a bad morning and took it out on you.

Difficult to choose between them as they are all within £20 of each other.

There's really nothing much better than those you listed so I would go for your favourite out of those rather than trying something new. I'd still recommend the M7RR out of those though personally.
 
Yeah they were designed for the TT, so going very fast in very changeable conditions, dry and wet.

The new rosso 3's are pretty much the same tyre but look better imo. And the rosso corsas are a few years old now, not even sure if they're dual compound at the rear?

Ordered the ferodo pads. Just got to wait for delivery now.

Do any of you guys give the discs a light sanding down to get rid of deep deposits in the disc, ready for the new pads to be installed? I've read a few people do?
 
Loose wheels in the boot along with the new tyres, I always do that - saving £10-20 just with 20 minutes work.

Typically I get one tyre changed at a time, it's rarely both done at once so it's not a huge deal to remove the wheel.
 
That's not to bad I suppose. For the sake of £20, would rather let them do it, I can see the rear wheel removal bring a pain. Taking it off was fine, was putting it back on, the fella was struggling, spacer kept coming out etc.

I'm very pleased so far with the angel gt's, very gripy in the wet, and they felt great today in the hot weather. I prefer them to the m7rr's.
 
SV has 2 spacers, its a pain... My dad helped me get the rod/axle thingy. On my own, it wouldn't be easy... I can get mine done fairly cheaply, prefer to pay a bit on top than go through that hassle every time I change tyres. :p
 
I've got it down to a fine art. On a good day I can get the back wheel back in on my own by balancing it on my boot in about 3 minutes.

Then again on a bad day it can take me 20 :o
 
Had the M7RR tyres fitted, £270.

Noticed a weird issue, since changing the exhaust, the gear indicator is all over the place. With it in neutral, knock it into first and it reads 4th gear, pull away and change gear and it reads 3rd, sometimes 4th, when I slow down and go down to 1st it reads 2nd for a while. I've done the force adaption but I'm thinking I need a remap to sort the gears out.

I've checked the gear rod, shifter and cables and they are all ok.
