anybody runnin whitewalls on our machines in the uk.tryin t find somewhere cheap. maxxis seem the way t go but the ones ive found were really expesive. any info will be greatly recieved

Personally, I wouldn't bother with whitewalls. I had them on one of my Harleys (before I saw the light and switched to Triumph!). They are a pig to keep clean, especially the rear. And that was with belt drive. I would think it's ten times worse with a chain.
If you must use them, I'm trying to remember where I got them. I think it was from a guy in whitehaven who advertises on Ebay under the name japscrap. They were certainly cheaper than the stealership's blackwalls. I think they were Avon. Cost me a tenner to get them fitted but now I've got tyre levers!

cheers pal, ile givit a go

I havent been able to find one for the front in the uk at all. I run Venoms and painted the front. THey are a ****** to keep clean though

oh and mine where also from Japscrap - the guys hardwork though, let me down a few times
