A while back you recommended Avon Azario's as a good choice for a B12.

Outstanding tyres, I'm much impressed.

Can't thank you enough.

If I've bought sh1t tyres can someone tell me before it rains!

UKRM was one source of many recommendations of Azaros so they can't be
too bad.

.....and the guy in the tyre shop reckoned they're the number one choice
for a hard wearing tyre.

Worried now.

Don't be unless you're a psychopath ragging the fuck out of a Bindit
with your missus alternately screaming and threatening to throw up on
the back and you're intent on doing a personal best lap of Pahnd Island.

If that *is* the case, you've bought the wrong tyres.

The last one on my 600 Bandit lasted 10,000 miles, and still gripped
well on the day it was replaced.

Ta for that. As you guess ultra stickyness isn't my aim. They've got to
be sticker than the OE tyres and last a little bit more. Sound like
I've done ok, after all.

Some people want high mileage from tyres, others want grip.

Hard wearing isn't a good thing if you want tyres to perform well when
you give it a bit of stick on a twisty road.

>Worried now.

You should be.

I'm still impressed with the Pirelli Diablos on the Zed. I see that the
latest Diablo Corsa got a good report in Bike this month.
