    Ok, fair enough, so they don't seem to be released here yet, lol... but just out of curiosity they seem to be very sporty with limited tyre life...

    Just a thought, and please do tell me if i'm out of order, but you said you were trying to be careful with cash, so why not consider a sports touring tyre?

    You'll likely get over twice the milage, and unless you're really going fast (I.e. too fast for the road, lol) you probably won't notice any less grip, and they might even be better in wet conditions?

    Obviously more grip is not a bad thing, but the modern very sports tyres are designed to be pushed on 200bhp+ bikes... I use Avon Storm on the Futura, and they offer superb grip in all weather and decent millage... If I was going on a trackday on a modern sportsbike it'd be a different story, but I'm not, lol

    Because it's 250 ish for the q3 shipped and tax just search dunlop q3 in ebay plus whenever you mention tyres everyone has different opinions on what tyre is best were with the q3 I'm very sure no one can say much about them
