Nother Noob : )

Post by gingernuts »

Hi first post so be gentle ; )
Just bought an 06 black borg 650 37K on the clock!
What tyres do you muppets use?
Its got Dunlop Scootsmarts on it but the rear needs changed as its down to the min tread.
Intend doing my own maintenance,or as much as i can. Everything looks straight forward except plugs but it still looks doable for the average home mechanic (and i am very average lol)

Hi, and welcome to the collective. I'm sure there'll be some good advice along shortly! My 400 is shod with Bridgestone hoops.

The Dunlop's get good reviews, as you only need a rear (normal) suggest you stick with them. Then next time when both need changing and you've had a chance to ride it some you can decide to stay with them or switch to Michelin Power Pure or Pilot Sport SC.
