Re: [doc] Tyre Warning

[Martin Gutkowski <webmaster@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

All I know is that when I was running around trying to track down _any_ 
tyre in the correct size for the rear, all anyone could sell me were 
P600's "but they're out of stock". The only other lead I got was from 
Micheldever who said that they do some off-road tyres in that size but 
we need a road tyre. I also got several comments from other places that 
"if Micheldever don't have them, no-one will". I'm guessing the Generals 
may be obsolete now???

BTW what was wrong with your engine after all?
