My tires are getting down to the wear bars, so it's time to spend more $$$.

I think I'm going to order a pair of Michelin Pilot Power 2CT's...

http://www.motorcycle-superstore.com/1/28/394/1/0/0/DEPARTMENT/Street-Bike-Sportbike-Tires-Tires.aspx#&&Back=351-0

That site has some really good prices. Waaayyyyyy cheaper then the local shops!!

I run 2ct's.. great tire IMO

Bought mine from derbycycles.com. From what I see, little more than $10 cheaper than the site you posted. Ordered Saturday, had them Wednesday.

I'll give Action a ring tomorrow and see what kind of price they can get me before I order my tires.

I went to the new independent motorcycle repair shop in Sturtevant and they quoted me $480 installed!! :deal

I got my tire at Ride in New Berlin (the old Torque Center) they have free mounting when you buy it there, and they have good prices.

I called Action and they had excellent prices. They don't stock the tires I want but they said it would be no problem to get them. Their install prices are excellent... $25 for the front and $28 for the rear. Looks like I'm going to take a ride up to Action next week weather permitting:)

Thanks for the heads up on Action :thumbsup

I sure do wish some of these decent cycle shops were closer.

I've run Pilot Power in the past and loved them.

Amazing grip on the street.

The not so amazing part, they didn't last very long. Soft + Sticky = Not alot of miles.

Oh, and I like Action too!

I talked to someone named Jerrico and he quoted me the listed prices on the bike.
