| Tyres |
I started with Pirelli Scorpion A/T's - the
rear lasted 15,000 road km. Then switched to MT21's for the dirt. |
Same again. |
See 'Tyres Used'. |
| Rims |
I was going to change the back from an 18 to
17 inch for longer life tyres a wider selection of offroad tyres but
didn't.
Any tyre can be hard to find anywhere and it avoided more costs. |
Left at standard 18".
|
Still in use. |
| Bridgestone Ultra h/d tubes |
The strongest available. |
Same again. |
Still in use. |
| Inner tubes |
Filled with Slime |
Same again. |
Still in use. |
| Valve caps |
Changed to ones with valve core removers so
valves can be easily removed. |
Saw some colour coded valve caps so a pressure
check is a quick visual rather than manual process. |
Still in use. |
| Balance wheels |
Yes. |
Same again. |
