I got excellent service from the factory Dunlop that came on my 2012 TriGlide. So when I bought a new front tire, I went to BikeBandit.com and bought another Dunlop on sale for $120.00 delivered to my door. I took the wheel off my bike and brought it to a local tire shop that broke down the old tire and mounted the new tire for $15.00. Can't beat a new tire on my trike for $135.00. Yes I do use the same brand front and back.
I am going to get a new front tire on my 13 trike....
what brand is everyone using and happy with?
I am in Nassau County and was wondering if anyone has a bike shop that doesn't "rape you" for install like the "stealer"
PS..do you use the same brand for front and back?
I use the stock Dunlop's front and rear.. As far as dealer prices, Out in Long Gallon they have to pay the same high taxes and living expenses as you do...

Great tire rain or shine a little mud on the tires
Do a little home work and shop around a little I mail ordered my tire and had it installed for 30 bucks saved a pile of money on the tire. Look at running a rear tire on front mounted backwards (that is because of splice direction in casing force applied by braking instead of acceleration). Rear tires have a lot deeper tread and last much longer and grip as good or better. safe travels fearless

What Fearless said and put much more eloquently.
attached is a Dunlop mounted backward
If they charged 75 an hour.... Would give him all your business ?
And if you need something and his price is a hundred dollars, But you seen it on the internet for eighty dollars where will you buy it from... [That's a Rhetorical question]
