I got a pair of Michelin Pilot Sportys for my YBR, which are exactly the same spec for the CG from https://www.nationalbiketyres.co.uk/

FWR Tyres in stockwell. I think they are officially the cheapest in the uk or something. I get all my tryes from there, you can pick up a pair of michelins or brigstones for £110, dunlops cost me £85 for the pair. (prices are all fitted and for a Bandit600)

They do a ride-in service and they fit them while you wait in about 30mins, no appointment necessary. Although waiting times can be longer at busier times.

Really good lot in there, and really helpful. I'd recommend them

I know quite a few people do a run down here from out of town, buy the tryes in bulk for themselves and their mates and then run them back up. So they must be worth it Wink

EDIT:

Just clicked the link above, and that price it very good

These are the cheapest michelin pilot sporty, I could find https://ssl.delti.com/cgi-bin/rshop.pl?add_to_cart=Ordern&cart_id=19206192.110.18041&4|MOTO-R-127887|43.00|Michelin+Pilot+Sporty+90%2F90+-18+RF+TT%2FTL+57P+M%2FC|149=1&ranzahl=1&dsco=110 £76 a pair

BUT, I couldn't be bothered to do myself , so had some fitted today £110 at national tyres , who were the cheapest I could find locally , with fitting & new valves.
That was without balancing , bacause I don't think it's necessary on a Ybr & I took my old tyres with me .
Though a Cg would also need tubes . Neutral

Can you fit them yourself?

If so there are lost of on-line places you can get discounted tyres. If not, then go to whatever your closest shop it. For the size tyres you are talking about, they are not big money anyway, so shopping about the local shops/dealers is likely to save <£5 I would have said ... and at that point is it worth bothering ... just go to your local/nicest one!!

Give these a try bike tyres leeds
Great service, ride in ride out, loose wheels, or just tyres if fitting is your bag.

IMO the best place is to ask local garages on their cheapest price with CASH. Trust me it works cheaper than the internet prices.
