Thanks for the advice all, sorry for the delay in reply, they were all a bit far to travel. So it was over to the good old yellow pages and a few phone calls to find out that an off the beaten track place up stratton way i've used for small repairs before is a main dealer for pirelli too, so i give them a call and half an hour later i was riding away again with new diablos fitted and a lighter wallet.

Will probably use them again as the service and price was good, if anyones interested the place is, Steve Lynham Motorcycle Repairs and Service on 01793 820630.

Cheers,

Shandy
