Tyres
Dave487:
I've been poking about on tyre suppliers websites and got a bit confused as I can't find matching TT (tube type) for front and rear in the the same make. Obviously they need a tube, but do they need to be TT type?
A local supplies pointed me toward Pirelli City Demon, Has anyone got experience with them?
Chris400F:
I use Avon Roadriders fitted with tubes, as I think a number of others on this site also do.
Avon recommend 90/90-18 (51V) for the front and 100/90-18 (56V) for the rear.
Apparently fitting tubes reduces the speed rating slightly but as V-rated tyres are good for 149 mph I don't think that should be a problem!
Dave487:
On the advice of Chris400f I,ve bought a pair of Avon Roadriders.
Much better choice if you go for uprated tubeless type.
Looking forward to getting it on it's wheels.

mike the bike:
Don't use a 90/90 on the back, use a 100/90. The 90 is a bastard to fit and looks like a rich tea biscuit.
