sure to cause a storm

Samwise, What life did you get from your trailwings?? I found them grippy enough (if you kept the pressures right) but only got 4.5 k from a rear

No idea what it would've reached, but I changed them both before doing the Dolomites run and I reckon that I'd done around 3500-4000 on the rear. It wasn't really close to being illegal, but might've been somewhere on that trip, and the trip to the south of France had really squared off both tyres, sat on the Autoroute for hours on end.

just another question i've been looking at avon tyres and they have sizes 90/90 17 etc but then a letter like t or s what do the letters stand for?

The S and T are the speed ratings - see the Continental Tyres web page
