Hi, Ive got a couple of tyres to shift that are practically brand new and came from my brand new SV650. Im wanting rid of them, not after very much but Im concerned about the whole sending thing.

Has anyone sent them via royal mail or would it have to be a parcelfarce job? Ive never used a courier before and wouldnt know where to start!!!

Cheers Thumbs Up

I must of mis-spelt "Courier" somehow, and then ran spell check, then no check the correction. as "Currier" is a proper word apparently. Confused

Doubt the wheel sizes will have changed between a curvy and pointy nipple SV.

Yeah went there today with the tow tires tied together at several intervals with parcel tape. Apparently they have to be completely packaged, i.e. no open space in the middle and no non-coverage. They are worried about liability for damage, despite the fact its two pieces of hard rubber that are designed to be scrubbed at 100+ mph!!!

To 'LIl Joe Tek', Im going back monday night after work to post them again, its a week with royal mail or 48 hours with Parcel Farce. RM is 10 quid and PF is 15. Up to you bud!! I carried those effing tires all through town too, THINGS I DO FOR YOU JOE!!!!!!!!!

Thumbs Up
