BT45 tyres, best prices?

[CB1rocket]

Hello all, its been awhile I know!

Who's selling the best prices for BT45s in the UK at the moment? I'm doing up both my CB1s and need to source a few parts. Mainly consumables.

Cheers for any help and/or links

The last ones I bought were a pair of 18 inch ones for £120 GBP fitted from my local garage. You'll be lucky to get them much cheaper although I did buy a pair of new ones on eBay a while back for £50 GBP, the seller had them listed as "CB-1 Tyres" rather than stating the size in the title. Worth checking out used ones, there are a lot of people buy used bikes, fit new tyres for the MOT and then the bike packs up or fails the MOT with something serious and the bike gets broken up.

I have some lightly used Avons spare. Not the best tyres but great if you're doing one up to sell.

£50 on the wheels if you collect? Also got a lightly used front disc.

thanks Aaron, will bear that in mind, not doing up either to sell. Me and my brother are on for a -1s camp trip! 

still got to drop the old engine out! Some welding on the exhaust so lots of work to do

New Forest in the South, somewhere in wales, possibly scotland, somewhere in Yorkshire moors and back home in sussex. 

Its still very much in the prelimnary stages, all subject to getting the -1s sorted.

No. 1 needs an exhaust baffle re-welded and a general lubrication of control cables, pivots points etc and a MoT

No. 2 needs the engine dropping out, the piston on no. 3 cylinder has shattered to pieces! So is an engine swap job and then MoT.

Probably easier for me to buy another couple of -1s?  But then again i like to get my first big bike i owned fixed up, I will only regret selling it.
