RE: Tire Price

For a set of new Dunlop 402 Touring Elite II Wide White Wall for my '03 Ultra Classic shipped to my door for a total of $225.56, is that a good price?

RE: Tire Price

I paid $350.00 on a previous bike I owned. I asked for some K-Y at that price but the fat a$$ offered none.

RE: Tire Price

I'll be needing new tires soon, so I called up my dealer and asked about Metzeler ME880 90/90H-21 for the front and 150/80B-16 for the rear... I almost fainted when I was told: $187.00 Cdn for the front and $280.00 Cdn for the rear. Then add $120.00 for the installation. With taxes in, that's almost $700.00!!! For 2 TIRES!!!! Anyway, after I got up off the floor, I went online and found the front tire for $79.00US and the rear for $103.00US, 20 bucks each for shipping, and with exchange factored in, the total comes to less than the price I was quoted for the rear tire alone!

Me likes the internet!!!!!

Cheers!
