ATTENTION!! Due to the situation in the Ukraine, we're having problems maintaining tyre stocks, and we're faced with rapidly increasing prices—which we're not happy about passing on. So no more orders until further notice. Sorry, but we have to face certain realities.

Classic bike tyres | Avon | Continental | Dunlop | Metzeler | Michelin


Some of us just can't help thinking in imperial sizes, not least when it comes to classic motorcycle tyres. That's how we were brought up. Imperial, not metric. And while most of the world has moved on, we've been kind of left behind. But fortunately, Avon tyres stayed around too with this Safety Mileage (A style) rubber.

 

The design, as you can see, is very much old skool, and the performance will match. But that's not necessarily a bad thing. Some of us, after all, simply aren't scratchers. We're laid back straight-line cruisers, and these tyres will do us nicely. They've got harder compounds rather than soft, and that will give you plenty of hours of easy-going mile-munching. And if you're running a sidecar, these will get you rolling—assuming you have wheels of a matching size, of course.

 

Buy 'em. Ride the hell out of 'em. See the sizes on the right.

WARNING!!!

Top advice before buying motorcycle tyres


 

How do you know that the tyres you're buying are safe to use? That's a tricky one because tyres have to not only be correctly manufactured, but they also have to be properly stored prior to sale and use. And not all stored tyres are fit for purpose.

 

We're not just talking about the usual knock-off rubber coming in from the Far East and flogged on the 'net. We're talking about tyres that have, perhaps, been legitimately bought from wholesalers, but then badly stored.

 

That can mean exposure to too much sunlight. Incorrect racking. Over-long storage. Incorrect temperature control in storage. Chemical damage when in storage. And there are many other potential hazards including delamination, cracking and general decay. Therefore you need to feel confident in the people you're buying from—and that means staying clear of the dodgy dealers and suchlike on the internet.

 

If you buy cheap—or too cheap—you could be buying a lot of trouble. At Sump, we deal only with a reputable wholesaler. We set a fair price and we stay competitive—with everyone but the dodgy dealers. So either trust us with your business, or don't.

 

We're constantly looking out for tyre trouble so that you don't have to ride straight into it. And if you've got any doubts or qualms, we want to hear about it asap.

 

Okay?

Puncture repair kit

Essential for the road

£29.95


The first time you have to use this kit, it will convert you to Christianity—or maybe some other religion. Either way, you'll be grateful to someone. Or something. Of course, this won't suit classic bikes with inner tubes. It's purely a tubeless kit—and pretty much everyone with tubeless tyres should have one. What's that? You've already signed up to a breakdown service? Well great. The last time we waited for a recovery van to show up, it took three hours.

Click on the image above, or fish around for a link, and you'll get a bite from our Puncture Repair Kit Buying Page. We wouldn't leave home without one. You shouldn't either.


 

 

Bowden cable repair kit

Essential for the road

£6.95


Anyone can suffer a snapped cable on their motorcycle. It happens. But only the guys and girls who look ahead are able to fix the problem for themselves at the roadside. We've been there and done it. Many times. Now it's your turn. So hit the link above. Swoosh over to our buying page. Do the business. Then get on with the rest of your life. Whatever else goes wrong for you and your bike, snapped motorcycle cables won't ever again give you undue cause for concern. Okay?

 


 

 

WAITING FOR YOUR SUMP ORDER?

 

If you've recently bought a Sump T-shirt, a book, a motorcycle lock, a framed print, a tin wall sign or whatever, and if your order hasn't arrived, you might want to check your email spam box. We regularly find that customers have failed to give the information we need to process the order (size, full address, style, colour, etc).

 

If there's a query, we make three attempts to contact buyers, and if we get no reply, we cancel the order and return any payment. But that can lead to disappointment, especially if the item is a gift for someone. So if you haven't heard from us within 24 hours of placing your order, please check your spam box, or contact us again.
