Had my new rear tyre fitted today - Pirelli City Demon. Looks much better than my old Dunlop which lasted 8000kms so will be interesting to see how it goes.
Bought it at MS Motorcycle Repairs - corner of Cranebrook and Londonderry Rd. Michael supplied and fitted the tyre, adjusted the chain and greased the axle - for $170.
I found him very good to deal with. He's pretty busy there but I'm happy with his prices and service.

8000KM and it was worn enuf to replace? shouldn't have any trouble beating that with the city demon rear

done > 5000KM on mine and just starting to not see the wavy marker thing in the centre tread, but then the city demon isn't meant to be grip king
