    new tyres

    I'm thinking of buying a couple of Mich PE3's as the fronts need replacing. Rears have covered at least 15,000 miles but have good tread. Do you, A) Replace the fronts with the new tyres? Or B) Switch the partially worn tyres on the rear to the front, and put the new tyres on the rear. ?

    Wiper Stalk

    I've finally relented and decided to fit the intemittent wiper stalk. I have a very good guide on how to fit it. However, it does not state exactly how to remove the upper steering wheel cowling/cover. There don't seem to be any screws holding it in. Does anyone know how to remove this? Thanks.

    Due to a change in financial circumstances :( I'm taking the rather hard decision to suspend my insurance policy (a huge cost for me being 20) and lay #110 up until maybe spring or early summer next year. That way I'll be saved from renewing my insurance again in June as I can potentially...

    Michelin PS3 Pioneers

    Those with PS3s fitted - what tyre pressures are you using? I normally run 32 front but they seem a bit squidgy if you chuck the front around. I'm guessing a softer sidewall causes this? Gonna try 35 front later and have a tinker.
