My rear Distanzia is getting low and I need a new one. I'm trying to fit it in with a service which I keep puting off. Been trying to find a rear 160/60 17 for ages and no luck anywhere. Even M&P haven't had their shipment in. Can anyone tell me where I can get one before the 22nd of November?

badga,

See my report in the wheels & tyres section that tells you about the shortage and production of the distanzias.

Have you tried Busters or M&P at all, or Essential Rubber, or failing that FWR??

Cheers

WB

checked em all, none available. just spoke with Avon and they have no date on any coming in. so what's the next best tyre? I don't want diablos

What bike is that for?

Have you got a smaller rear?

(Can I ask for some more of your fantastic panel designs for the XT please?)

Sorry, meant 160/60 17 for the XTX

I've just spoke to Fran and am now gonna go for the Prielli MT60. Should be fun LOL.... and looks a bit mean ;0)

As for designs ... I'll try to do some ASAP... did you have something in mind?

This might sound daft but I was thinking along the lines of a countryside scene a bit like the backgrounds in the TV series Magic Roundabout since someone said I ought to have a hippy style with flowers etc.
