Davey has gone to extraordinary lengths to get me some much needed rubber for my Paso!! They are on their way Monday at a very reasonable price, considering they are made of "unobtainium" and I only asked last week!!
Great stuff Davey, keep up the good work.

Re: current USPS rates for shipping to UK

yellerduck wrote:The rate is better than I initially thought it would be. These rates are for the 6 to 10 days shipping time.

(1) tire $65.70

(2) tires $108.60

(3) tires $151.50

Three is the most I can send at one time (the package gets too big after that). If you are interested in three, I can go $300 for the tires and the shipping would be $151.50. If you want two the cost would be $250 plus $108.60. Thanks, Davy Keith.

Still have a bunch of M59's.
i also need some tires for my paso - is shipping to austria also possible??

just enter the tire size on the left and you will find it.
According to the site availability is marked as green. Although the may be out of production does not mean that noone still has some on stock.

tires are here

Hi Davy. The tires arrived here about a week ago. Good timing because I can just see the canvas starting to come through. :eek:

I must say that the M59 I have on just seemed to get better and better as it wore down. I don't suggest riding with bald tires in the rain but they sure are a lot of fun on warm dry roads. :D

All hail "KING" Davy Keith!!!
Thanks to Davy I now have new boots back and front, and I am looking forward to thoroughly wearing them out.
I'll post a note when they've gone down to where the originals were/are (11,000 miles) to see how long they last.

Happy days are here again, and I've just found another Paso for a bargain price! I must be mad!! Double the trouble! but trouble I can put up with. It is a DUCATI.

Ride safe, ride free.
