Replacement tyres

oldtuggie:
1976 550 four supersport, any tyre recommendations would be gratefully received

Nashfly:
I use Avon Roadrider Mk ll on all my classics

I find they're a good mix of grip, wear, ride quality, price and most importantly they don't do that horrible tramlining that affects most of the of the other tyres I've used in the past

They also do a softer compound race version..

DomP:
Exactly the tyre I'm going to fit on my 550f, I think 100 90 19 and 110 90 18.  Cheapest place I've found so far is Demon Tweeks

Laverdaroo:
That is the cheapest Dom, I trolled about for ages but tyres are always cheapest just after crimbo as the rubber market has a dip which reflects on the price. You generally save about 12% on list in January depending on manufacturer

Roadriders are good but don't last, Bridgestone rears cracked between the tread pattern when half worn.
I'm on Michelin Road Classics now, they look a bit skinny when fitted but the bike feels lighter on roundabouts and tight bends  etc.
Expensive tho...
