ha, paid 320 for my wife's this year.. had no idea they were that much. might try the night dragon next time

 

Well everyone says the night dragon looks smaller than the SE tire and since I'm only changing to get the fat tire look I might as well get the SE tire. I have the Harley chopped fender kit sitting in my garage waiting for install so the 160 rear needs to go.

I have a local small town shop seeing if they can acquire the tire for me...if not I will call my local HD dealer and see if they can at least give 15% off or something. Zepka HD in Johnstown, PA gives 5% off to military all the time but I'm still not wanting to spend $350 for a tire. I guess you have to pay to play though...

 

seems like a lot more to pay for only a 20mm gain and a lot less mileage..

 

that $313 also includes a different set of spacers and some other hardware required for the install. when you combine the extra parts and the cost of a separate tire, it's better to go with the kit. I had it done a couple of months ago...

 

Ok so the $313 comes with the kit? I was told it was the tire only.

 

Pirelli Night Dragon, 180/60/17 $188.00 free shipping

After spending much time looking around, Motorcycle Superstore has the best prices and free shipping. Also, if you take the tire to a metric shop to R&R and balance it's less than at the dealer.

 

I went with the SE 180. I know it's more but I it's what I really wanted. It's going on my Street Bob which averages 1,500 miles a year so the tire will last a few years. Since I'm doing the chopped fender I wanted the beefiest 180 I could get so why not spend the extra bucks.

You guys are awesome as always! Thanks for your help!

 

I was going to recommend this place i bought one for my bob in april 2012 for $209.00 FREE SHIPPING had it put on for $75.00 by a local bike shop still cost about $300.00 but the local HD wanted $299 just for the tire. Shipping was super fast I think i got it the next day don't know how they did that but I was very pleased.

 

Can you share your source so I can look for other parts there?

 

Sorry I thought I did I quoted your post> I got mine from Latus Harley Davidson
