cracked how/where? take it back to the garage you got it from, they will have a claim thing against the supplier. although it generally takes quite some time to claim back, unless the garage just fit you another foc that is.

try the place you got it from first pal, as already said the may have something in place with avon whereas they send you a new one free of charge and then claim their money back from avon

avon will more than likely tell you to take it up with the place you got it from. they will then get you to buy a new tyre, then you will have to wait until the claim is made to get your money back. thats how it normally works with most places. place of purchase claim against supplier who will claim against avon. can take a while.

Get a pilot sport, I had one on my Gilera a few years back, very good grip even in the wet.
