Ok just to conclude this little thread, I went with the Dunlop GPR10's thanks to Becky at Caringbah Motorcycles for getting them in for me :D

Now to find some new front and rear disks and pads!

one of the fronts is bent and causing a massive shudder under braking and the rear has a nice big groove carved into it (would be too deep to machine). But i think i can get away with just changing the fronts for now as they are the ones causing me issues. I don't want to leave them too long and destroy my nice new front tyre :?

I got a quote for $300 each for the fronts and $150 for the rear (inc pads) anyone know of a possible better deal?

Try seller 'dirtbiker_blacktown' on ebay.. This guy has more than just dirt squirter parts . Got the new front and rear rotors for the GPZ , new chains and cogs for the GPZ , GSF and the KLR flus a buet set of Rivet winter gloves from this seller at pretty reasonable prices..He gets the stuff to you pretty quick too.
