    I commuted on the Blade yesterday and today; swapped the garage about when I got home to make sure the Street Triple has it's turn for the next few trips!

    Got to keep your steeds happy there Mrs V, as important as regular maintenance. :grinning:

    My first decent length ride out on the NS400 since my shoulder Op at the end of March.

    Great fun on the little stroker, though I doubt Greta would be too impressed with the blue haze I observed in my mirrors as I wound the power on exiting corners. :joy:

    Lovely warm, sunny commute on the Blade today whilst my Street Triple was in the bike shop getting its new tyres fitted :).

    How many miles had you done on the OE tyres?

    About 8500 - they were actually still OK as in not on the wear bars, but the rear had very, very slightly started to square off a bit which is to be expected I would have thought at that mileage. I want to try different tyres, so am getting front and rear whereas there was plenty left on the front OE tyre. The ones I have gone for (Dunlop Roadsmart 4) do an SP version as well for lighter and sportier bikes so am giving that version of them a go.
