What did you get?    I had a mate who was selling his bike, but it needed a new rear tyre before he could advertise it.   He went into the motorcycle tyre shop, and asked for "Anything that was Round, Black & Cheap"   :crackup

It's a Dunlop Roadsmart 3, Pete...
I ordered it around 3 weeks ago from Brisbane Motorcycles. It apparently got a bit lost in the system until I rang them wondering why it hadn't been sent.
They were all apologetic for the stuff-up so then sent it "Express" instead of snail mail...  :thumbs
Good thing I wasn't in a hurry to get it though...

Going to look at delivery of a Mich PR5 rear for STella.


Sounds like tyre delivery works okay.

You all need to tread carefully with these puns.

Brock will only take so much pressure before blowing a valve and deflating your ability to inflate your egos.

Once I phoned to find out what was going on, all was okay with it arriving in basically 3 days. That included having to get the tyre from another store.
I'm assuming it would have been sent by basic snail mail under normal circumstances...

I must say I did get the tyre at a great price so the wait was no real hassle...especially when there's still life in my current front tyre. :thumb
