Chaps,

May I ask what tyres, in what sizes, you have on your W/NGs?
cheers

3.50 x 19" front and rear.
Mitas are cheap and the handling and lifespan is certainly acceptable

According to the book, 3.25" x19 were originally fitted

Brilliant, thanks John - just what i wanted.

I had the H06 on my old MZ TS250 - they seemed fine. Was that the one you used? I guess yo may have used the H02 - looks more appropriate for a W/NG.

I used to have Dunlop India Unigrip 3.50 x 19 , very cheap, but although they did not wear the grip was below par.
Even on dry roads it is very easy to skid when braking hard, I suspect the material used is to hard.
Now I use Dunlop Gold Seal K70 on my NG, about twice the price but much more grip.
Burney is getting those also.

I have had excellent results with 350-19 Dunlop K70. Quite good grip when new and soft and look authentic. Current 325-19 are too small in section. There was a a revision of sizes, (standardisation?) many years ago now and to have the same size you have to go one bigger. Nev
