Changed the rear tyres on both the GF and Kwaka - both worn down to less than half a mm of their lives. The Kwaka gets a Kenda Challenger K657 which is a slightly larger radius than the original (130/90 18 rather than a 130/80 18) - looks big, fat and impressive, just like me.

Got both front and rear K657s for £134 inc delivery, which is why I went with the larger size rather than standard.
The GF gets a Kenda K761 which was £67 and free delivery. Will be interesting to see how they both perform as the GF tyre is a combo tyre for road/off road (60/40 split). It is also mountable front or rear. Spent a tenner each to get them put on as I didn't fancy the Kwaka tyre even with my 'big levers'.💪💪
The custom exhaust on the Kwaka is giving me a headache still, may just buy some cheapo tulips or megas and be done with it. I do like the Dunstall replica, but they are loud. Bike seems to run better without the 'restrictive' baffling, but the exhaust note is a bit like the GF at 'big handful' mode.

Resting after Monday's 200m ride around my favourite haunts on the Kwaka. Next out is the GF to see if the new battery I put on will stand the rigours of a good blast.
This week's weather looks dry and hot - enjoy it while it's here.
