okay i am going to sell my dirtbike... i might get at MAX 700 out of it (it is old and looks crapy but runs good)

should i get a jacket first or a rear tire(or a set the front looks good but i forgot if you can mix match i think you can)

just need some experienced imoput... i have acceptable gear now but i am going to get a jacket off the clearence on newenough so i guess i can get the jacket and tires?!?!?! :lol:

so what tires are good and cheap?!?! and can i get just the rear tire?! :sorry:

I think they charge $60 to off & on the tires...with them off the bike!

So that's the same price! Good deals!

We'd do $275 on a 120/190 set, including mounting and balancing.

I just looked up my cost on those .... they're not that expensive. I could do a set shipped for $250 + shipping. They might be on special right now though, which would explain the low cost (I'm at home, don't have my monthly specials sheet from the distributor in front of me - there's a lot right now because of the Indy Dealer Show having been last weekend).

Er... I lied? :D

*Usually* it is, which is why we don't even try and sell tires on the website.

I don't know why people are selling the Pilots for so much ... and like I said, it could just be a one-month special from the distributor (I just looked up our cost in our online ordering system ... which means next month I might not do it at that price ... we only stock one or two sets of each brand in the shop since we get next-day service from the distributor). Anytime I quote prices not on the site, it's by looking at the currrent cost and deciding what we can sell it for and still keep the lights on :)

Well make sure to check on that Brian/Speed... if you can get them for that... we'll have to have everybody buy the powers from you!!

FIND OUT IF THE DEALERSHIP WILL DO IT FOR FREE AND IF THEY'LL PRICE MATCH. CHECK OUT www.americantire.com FOR GOOD PRICES.
You need to have stands to remove the wheels yourself...
