with your joking and Antony's swearing (same as mutley748's text to me earlier, best I don't reply in the same way here)
It almost makes CBs suggestion sensible
But I thought Englebert was a singer of sorts and I don't mean a sewing machine, maybe he made tyres in his spare time

Voted Pirelli butt would prefer Zr's

[faith-healer]

I don't think that a discussion on individual choices serves any point at this time, especially as most people will have had little or no track experience of more than two, or possibly three, different makes/compounds. (Skids excluded )

As Chris Bushell has stated the rules for 2009 are "cast in stone"....

....we've got what we've got....live with it.

but....there are alternatives available now that were not available when the original decision to go with Pirelli's was made.

I'm not suggesting one make or another but the fact that 'tyre threads' are continually re-appearing should indicate that there is more than a degree of general dissatisfaction with the current 'arrangements'

The alternatives should be explored sooner rather than later to avoid the confused situation, that's arisen this year, happening again next season

Click http://www.michelinpowerone.com/site...e/indexen.html for details of the new Michelin Power One range, just one of the possible alternatives.

Bit to modern for me, mine were round tank 250 and 350s with one of the 350s being a YR5, now that had an interesting power delivery.

And it didn't matter which tyres I used I always managed to ride beyond the limit, where the the solid footrest would lift the rear wheel off the ground and send you slideing towards the outside of the roundabout.
