No tire warranty and I'm no a big fan of plugs on bikes.
Well if there's anything else I can help you with, holler....

I'm kind of new to the area, and mostly ride alone, not by choice.

Thanks. We'll get together for a ride once I'm back up and running again. I'm going to get a kidney harvested to pay for my tire and first service... They wouldn't take my liver for some reason.

That is exactly why I bought the tire and whelk coverage. Too much crap and pot holes on the roads by me.

Dude you can do your service in my garage too... Just sayin'

I have all the stuff.

Even if you use high dollar oil, you're under $60.

Me too.

And it's amazing how many screws your tires will find with a shade above 3/32 on them...

The dealership in VA Beach doesn't charge labor on tires. That isn't standard at the dealerships?
