Thats good value but 003's will wear pretty quick on the 10.............. they are fantastic for the sixes :P
The 003's are not much chop in the wet either.

They make a great track tyre..... for smaller bikes, 9's I dont know about wear rate but my ZX10R chewed a rear up & spat it out in one track day.

There's no confusion at all disco , and i didnt get a bargain just the price quoted to me via email from Craig, anyhow I just rang Michael and said why is the tyre $300 when craig said its $220. Apparently he didnt know there selling them out at $220. A case of right hand doesnt know what the left hand is doing obviously Michael doesnt know about this price change , but he does now.

Here is a part of the email Craig sent me yesterday...

...''We are selling the Rear BT003 T4 for $220 to clear them out they are the same compound as the front you have, other than that as Michael has been at the warehouse he could tell you what else we have..''


As i stated the tyre is $220 not $300 that's what everyone on here will pay , if you have any probs tell them to contact me.

Nice guys, good prices, bad organising / business skills..............
Been there twice and got stuffed around and got different prices on the phone to what I was told when I got there both times...... Last time I went, neither Craig or Michael were there. The guy that did show up (late) had no key to the roller door and no eftpos machine. We spent 40 minutes removing the internal latches with the padlocks still inplace so we could open the roller door. Craig had the eftpos machine and was in and out of mobile range, so I helped fitting three other customers tyres whist we tried to get my credit card put through.....
I would think a gold mine of a business for someone willing to have a go and open more than one night a week.

Mate thats fantastic- A pair of Power 2ct's delivered from the States for $298 and even a pair of Powers Old School $270.

Thanks for that, I'll be buying tyres from the States from now on :kuda:

If they sell em in Malaysia and there cheap, I'll be bringing em back with no delivery charge ;)
