How much is that in real money?

I stole that line, by the way. Someone said it once and I thought it was funny.

204 dollars in US money soon to be 300, the way your dollar is dropping makes me look forward to buying a bike in the States  :nana:  that's for making fun of my country's money.

[davipu]

I think $204 for both (installed) is great...   :dunno:

[Octous]

Yeah, $204 is a great price for both front and rear installed and balanced.  Over here you're looking at much closer to $300 US.

[dyran]

It's just for the rear tire and yes the loonie is the name of our one dollar coin, ps you who now our history = awesome, ps I'm drunk cause the alumni from my school are back for homecoming and they got us beer at 1980 prices, $4 for a pitcher = me happy and drunk. f%$k YEAH

dude that is nucking futs.  do that shaZam! yourself.

[T&A-GS]

A shop here quoted me $300 for both tires mounted..... I started searching the net, as the shop will mount tires for $18 each.  Thats Bellevue prices for you though

[flyingbeagle71]

Is it okay to put a BT45 on the rear and leave the factory front on or do they both need to be replaced at the same time?

[BigTwin]

Man you guys are all getting ripped off. I'm getting Pilot Activs installed balanced and all for $160 TOTAL.

Hell I guess working at a motorcycle parts store helps with a discount and having them mounted and balanced for free :nana:

And as far as the $300 installed. That is completely nuts. $250 MAX.

how do you install and balance a tire at home? with a portable mechanics shop kit?
