> You can't have different tyres on the front and on the back!!!! I wouldn't try to mismatch front and back with radically different tires, but these seem close enough.

I can see that, but they are pretty new, and drive well. If I replace the Rapidexes with something good and put them on the front/Michelins rear, would that be a bad idea? Soggy tires on the back might create handling problems. > > Between Amsterdam and Cologne ? Don't think there's a single tiny part > where you can go more than 120 ?
