    currently running a B&B bash plate and happy with quality. have you any comments on the DEVOL brand?

    Dont like them no where near as strong as the aussie made ones. I got some flatland racing ones from thumpertalk for my WR450 but that was when the dollar was good. Cant go wrong with either of above.

    :laugh: :laugh: Menace I wasnt going off I was just trying to say I stand behind all the products I sell,nothing worse than getting something and feeling ripped off, The front tyres will surprise you as to what amount of grip they really do offer,once you have the pressures set right its a walk in the park.Maybe if I was a gun rider and pushing the absolute limits id notice but im not. Peace bro,long live the 2 stroke,BTW I have a KTM 300 and a 380 in the Garage and the grin factor I get from them is pretty good.

    hey when are we gonna get some more songs I nearly fall off my chair laughing funny shit.

    I misplaced re (lost) the bolt and wingnut that holds the airfilter assembly in place on my boys Husky WR250. I found a dynabolt the right length and welded a bit of plate on the end for a wingnut setup.works a treat and only cost me 75c from bunnings Id hate to think what Husky would have charged me:angry:

    you wait XY, youll see the short lifespan….. dragonflies live longer..LOL.. (of rear knobbies in general, that is)

    Menace your mad :woohoo: I dont sell them to make a living more a hobby and am happy to help out OBT.prices have gone up all over the place but I am still selling them for the same price as when I started. BTW the front retreads have a very strong following as well and rate very highly.If I didnt like em I wouldnt be selling them.

    No worries Drew, I have a couple of Michellin cased 130’s that would suit the Kato, I will keep 1 in reserve for you,if you want a front as well it can be included with the same postage.

    Yeh 20k’s not a problem. 3500 k’s on a tyre :blink: was that front or rear? My favorite tyre is the Metzeler MC5 but at $130 :( With the retreads you tend to get rid of them when you know they have served their purpose.with the more expensive tyres you keep saying to yourself ” Ill get another ride out of it”

    all I can say Drew is give them a try if you like them great,if you dont well youve only wasted $75 not $130. I became a distributor for 2 reasons 1.I have a few bikes in the garage (8) and my local shop who sold the retreads shut down so I got involved. What area are you in ?

    Gyday Drew, Mate with the retreads The tyre carcass is buffed back to bald all the way around,it is is then put into a heat and high pressure mould where a natural rubber compound is introduced,it is then formed into shape etc. All of the high quality brands use natural rubber ie Metzeler,Michellin,Pirelli and Dunlop.
    They need to be treated like any Knobby tyre,if you were doing a lot of commuting I would not recommend,but if you have to go on some blacktop to get to your riding area they would be fine. I get a good 1000 k’s out of a rear easily,others may get less,I mainly ride tight single trail not dirt highways.
    You can get the tyres from me for $150 a set plus postage. Postage obviously will vary but normaly no more than $25 to anywhere in Oz.
    Hope this helps
