Just put a set on my '16 Bonny T120. Totally transformed how the bike leans left to right. It's so easy now to lean and take corners with confidence. I LIKED the Bonny before, now I LOVE it.
Hi RUBIZEN, thanks for getting in touch. They are great tyres and really do transform the bike. As you say, they provide so much confidence. Hopefully the mileage will be good too.
How do these tyres compare to more expensive tyres?.I'm looking for tyres and am looking at these amongst others, now these have been stopped making them in the uk is their any difference in the since avon was sold .?
Hi Paul, I’ve always got on well with Avon’s so can’t give an experienced opinion against other more expensive tyres. I treat the Z900 as sports/tourer, so it’s not pushed particularly hard, and they do everything I ask confidently. Mine were manufactured in the UK, and so I can’t give an opinion on the new foreign manufactured ones. Is it in France? I’d like to think they haven’t made any compound change, but it’s an interesting point I’ll look into myself when the time comes. Steve.
How man miles did you ride them? ( or... have you ridden them? Just saw in your WD40 video that you still have them.) I bought a BMW f900r four weeks ago and the Bridgestone S21 on them do not seem to carry me further than 5000km (~3400miles). So I am thinking about buying these Avons
Hi there, they have covered 6,000 miles so far, and I expect them to reach 8,000 miles (the rear), maybe a little less for the front. I don't ride the Z900 'hard' - I treat it more of a Sports-Tourer. I really recommend them as they are still inspiring confidence. Thanks for looking and I appreciate your time to contact me.
Really like your video. It’s such a lovely place you live. Stunning. I felt I was on the bike with you and I don’t evan ride. More please. 👍
