I will have to take some with the bike in the garage, I am off the bike for the moment as I managed to rip off a toe nail this weekend, I can just about manage a pair of trainers but the thought of squeezing my foot into a pair of bike boots doesn't appeal! Typical as the weather looks good for the next few days too.

Bad news! Bet that smarts a bit!! It's always the way... Something happens to stop you riding just as the weather gets better... Heal soon!

You need to ride. Rusty disks! Looking forward to reports on how they feel/work.

LOL, yeah I thought that when I saw them, washing the bike and then not drying off the disks = poor idea

I really like knobbie tyres, but i'm not sure how they will react in the wet.
I live in Holland, so we have a lot of rain.
During this time of the year, we also have some icing.

How are knobbies when used on the highway??
Like when going on holiday or so.


Right know i drive with Siracs, but i would like to have knobbies

StevieD ... thanks for the pics. I'm going to order some. To spare my blushes, what sizes do I need to order for my Tenere? Yes, I'm useless, but I'll get someone to fit them, so don't want to appear overly stupid to the good people of Trellesport.
Thanks in anticipation.

17inch rear and 21 inch front they only do one width. You won't appear stupid
