Tyres

You won’t need new tyres for the Thruxton Richard if you leave your postcode on your profile.
Welcome to the forum. Someone with a Thruxton will be along to offer advice with tyres.

 

A friend of mine uses the Dunlop Arrowmax tyres & is the happiest he's been with the bike.

He did have Metzler Lasertec, but really struggled to get them warmed up properly & so struggled for grip & feel (A common criticism of those tyres in the UK in general I've noticed)

 

Another recommendation for Avon from me.

 

have avon roadriders on mine, am really happy with them

 

It'll soon be time for my Scrambler to have a new set of tyres - I'm trying TrailRiders next. She'll be 9yrs old when they're changed & still on original tubes & rim tape.The last set were fitted by a dedicated tyre shop & I asked them about it & they just said they'd replace if necessary - which they didn't do, even though they would have made more money. So what is the usual time scale to change these - or is it best to just leave it to the experts?
