Hi Sheridan,

IMHO i would recommend you the Metzeler Enduro 4, have the same 
"rubber-mix" as the street-tyre Metzeler ME Z2.  Actual the best 
choice for a good grip on the @-Twin. Picture from the tyre you'll 
found on the well known homepage www.sharples.com and you can order 
it also online from there. Hopefully i can help you with this hint.

Keep on riding.

Hi
I'm a new member on this list, and have a couple of questions to ask.
1.	Can anybody recommend a pair of tyres that give good grip,
mileage does not matter (within reason) but grip does, I'm currently
using T66 which have been on the bike an 89 model since I got it. 
2.	When I'm sitting still with the engine running there is a very
strong smell of petrol, has anybody else experienced this, the bike is
standard  except a scott oiler and is in very good condition, a full
service is now due could this be causing the smell. I.e. air filter,
valve clearances, carb balance or fuel filter.
Any help is most appreciated
Thanks
