i wanted to let everyone know that on www.motorace.com you can find Michelin "Pilot Race" H2 150/60ZR17 Rear and 110/70ZR17 Front which make the bike ride much better for only $49.95 each !!!!!!    my college professor who also rides a GS500 told me about them and i am sooooo happy i found them !!!!!

This is the site that is operated by my MSF instructor (the experienced course), Dave.

Great guy.  Knows a lot about bikes.  He knew EXACTLY what my bike was when I was riding towards the parking lot for the first time to meet the group.

I can vouch for this site being legit.

FYI: I talked to Oz on the phone, and not only is he real (and NOT a spammer!), he seems like a really nice guy! He did a lot of research to get his GS500 back on the road after it was hit, so he decided to share with us!   :cheers: :cheers: :cheers: :thumb: :thumb: :thumb:

I can vouch for him. He's local to me. I saw his bike at a local mall and put my business card on it, probably last december or january. He emailed me for info yesterday and told me about being called a spammer, but not in a "I'm hurt" kinda way. I just wanted to make sure the people I direct to the site are treated well. I can see how he'd be considered a spammer since this was his first post (can you say lurker using the search function?). He joined back in January.

I called them up and bought both front (110/70/17) and rear (150/60/17) for 119.99 shipped... great deal, thanks for the post, i've been looking for tires for a couple weeks now.  the guy on the phone was super cool and i shoul dhave my tires early next week.
1997 GS500, I don't know anything about it, i just got it.  HELP!

ohgood

i'll usually use netcraft to checkup on sites i'm not certain about, then google 'foo-bah-site sucks' and see how many hits it gets.

then i'll actually click around and see how many dead links there are, and if their customer unsupport number works, and speaks engrish.

then i'll sit on it for a month, and maybe buy something that claims free shipping as a bonus.

test the water, then measure how deep, then dive in.

Hang out there, we may flame, but we don't hate.

My attitude is in serious need of readjustment, and I'm ok with that.

The little college professor on my shoulder apologises for his mistake.  :icon_lol:

In his defense, that was a plug from a member with only one post.  Sure looked like spam to me.

If Pandy is ok with it and Pablo vouches for the dude, Then I guess I will allow it.  :laugh: :laugh:
