Brake pivots/tyres
Posted: 10 Oct 2003, 12:29
Hi All
Fitting some bark busters to the bike. Wwhen I take the old hand guards off the brake pivot bolts are way too long. What have others done about this, or have you just left the original bolts in place?
The bike has currently got supermoto wheels in but this weekend I am going to put the offroad wheels back in. I have tried these on the road once and the grip on the road is terrible (they are fitted with proper enduro tyres, not road legal). As I want to use the bike on and off road can anyone recommend a compromise tyre that will give good grip off road and at least feel safe at normal road speeds?
Thanks
Roger
