Okay. It'll have to be 10:15, because I haven't prepared.

If you are a member of a bike forum, you can get really good prices with riders discount. I just bought a set of q3's for 275, and Dunlop has a $40 rebate going so was 235, plus 60 for rich to mount and balance. Anytime you can get new tires on your bike for under $300 you're doing good imo! Just got through scrubbing them in on Geiger. Careful out there you guys, rookie day of the year as far as drunk drivers go

I mounted my own tires last time. I bought them on Amazon Prime for less than $200 for both tires, free shipping. Removal and mounting was easy. Then I bought one of those wheel balancers from Harbor Freight and tried to balance them. It was close for my first try, but not good enough to trust at speed. The guys at Michael's were nice and balanced them for me for free.

Granted we had just spent several thousand there on Sara's Ducati, but it was still a nice gesture and earned more business from us.

It's sad that the online shops can get tires so much cheaper than the local stores. I actually felt a little bad buying my tires from Amazon, so next time I'll probably buy them local.
