you can prolly get a maxxis (cheng shin) radial for 30 quid, otherwise a BT45 will be about 55. Not worth considering much else on the NSR.

well i rode the bike with a bald on one side tyre for about a 3 months! I must have rang at least a douzen places including a number that keith gave me. The tyre cost something like 80 plus vat.

i saw the invoice that the shop actually paid and thats how much it cost them... they only charged me a 5er for fitting and made nothing on the actual tyre.

Some of the places i rang were quoting 145 and stuff like that!
