Re: tyres
unfortunately best bet is to ring around dealers... altho if u want to get some guides as to which tyres might be more expensive than others... u can try some US based sites like http://www.morepowerracing.com.au... the prices are in US dollars but it will show u which should be the cheapest....

Re: tyres
We just put a set of Bridgestone tyres on my son's zzr250.
The front is a BT45f the back is a BT45r. He seems pretty happy. He's not trying to break the lap record at the island, but remember it's a 250.
From memory I think they were about $180 each fitted.
By going to the internet, at best you will probably save yourself $50 .
Better to go to your favourite local bike shop, get them to fit and balance them properly, if you buy the tyres from them they will likely look after you and at least you have someone with experience advising you.
You can also start to build a relationship.
If you walk in anwhere with two tyres from the net, and ask someone to fit them, you're asking: PLEASE SKIN ME!
