Re: Z1 tyres
you'll get about 20 different opinions but i'm happy with BT45s
Re: Z1 tyres
S'pose it depends what you want from said rubber, ie period look or performance?.
I always had good service from Roadriders on my classics, but one of my Triples came with a nearly new set of the modern copies of the original Dunlop Ditchfinders, but despite my reservations they performed fine. That said I don't ride like a 17 year old tw@t anymore.
