2017 rides planned?

I wish I was there!

I did take you advice on the Dunlop's and just received my Road Smart 2's. I bought front and rear. Since I don't trust myself with taking any tires off a bike myself due to finding left over parts in the past and only having two wheels. I did shop around and found that most dealers do a supposed deal of $50 off if you buy their tires. I got both from a local company online and shipped free in 2 days for a total of $246. All three Honda dealers (including the one that I bought the bike from) wanted between $345-$435 plus after buying the tires from them they wanted another $75-$115 to install on the bike. So I did find a shop that would install both tires bought online for $95 on the bike. That is a final cost of $341. So If a dealer would do it would be a minimum of $425. And to add if I would be able to take both tires off and bring them to them after purchasing them from them I would only be $5 the better and don't have to do shit. Hell ya,

 

Geez Louise, I get my tires mounted for $25 each if I carry them in and they're available online very cheapo. My source for this does a really careful job, balances them perfectly and takes very little time to do it. My shop rate is just too high for me to get into mounting and balancing tires ; )
