Default Metzler ME 880

I was going to put WWW tires on, but, I can't justify throwing a perfect front tire away.

So, I'm searching the Internet looking for the best deal on a rear Metzler.

Anyone have a good lead?

I get my Harley tyres from my local Yamaha dealer and take the wheels in for fitting. They can buy in any of the main brands of tyres overnight most times. A coffee and chinwag later and all is done! Good price, great service, but cheapest? No, but quickest and most convenient. Phone around......

If the front tire is a Dunlop 402 go ahead and change both.

Go online and look at Antler Creek cycle leathers and talk to Geoff.

That's ironic. I take my wheels to the local Yamaha dealer to have them fitted and balanced as well. Nice guys, but, their tire prices stink.
