New Tyres for my XT600E - SIRAC's

Just ordered another set of rubbers (front/rear) for one of my XT's. Once again I have gone for -

MICHELIN SIRAC's

MICHELIN SIRAC | Road Bike Tyres | MICHELIN UK

I can't recommend these things too highly for 70% tarmac 30% light trails. They are according to Yamaha standard OEM fit on their new XT660 Tenere's. I guess that's testiment to their performance (and price)?

I managed to get both for only £120 from a local dealer which seems very fair. He's putting them on for an extra £30.

They have that slightly "agricultural" look to them which I like very much.
