no worries. Glad you're all sorted.

Just take it easy on it for the first 100 miles or so and slowly increase lean angles.

That's the plan, sign on the guys wall said 100 miles and don't count wet miles. I don't think I can really push my tyres anyway, I cant jam on full throttle due to flooding the engine so no problem with sudden power on these whilst leant over.

Strangely he said 36psi for these tyres? Should I go off this or the Hayne's manual?

To be honest I remembered something in the MOT advisory about tyres being close to legal limit but I've just checked the certificate and it says front tyre! Doh!
