Where do yall order from? I have used Jake Wilson in the past but see they are riders domain now. Not sure what's up with that. I am just worried about getting tires that have been sitting for a while. Thanks!

Dennis Kirk is where I get mine. No issues so far.

 

I call the local Indy and tell them that if they can get reasonably close to the online price I will buy it from them and bring the wheel to them to mount and balance. The shop I used last matched the best online price.

 

I NEVER buy tires retail.
Bike Bandit and Dennis Kirk are great sources.
JPCycle if your a gold member or catch a sale.
The retail markup on tires is absurd, and the minute I hear... "I only mount tires I sell for liability reasons", just cost the shop that and any future business from me.
Way to many eager shops out there to get fleeced by greedy ones.

 

Just got a pair from JP. Good service, decent price, and quick delivery.Took them to Harv's Harley. They quoted me $45 per wheel to dismount, remount, and balance. After I got them home I read the bill a little closer. HA! $ 52.50 per! I phoned them and the response was/ "I don't remember any quote. Sorry, can't help you." Still, not too awfully bad, but they'll never get another penny from me. My advise. Get your quote in writing / In Advance! P.S. Pulling and remounting the rear on my CVO was a MOTHER! Good Luck

 

I ordered mine from Chaparral Motorsports. free shipping and lowest price I could find.

 

In addition to this great advice, because if we don't want honest local indys to go out of business, we need to give them some business, I'll add this suggestion:

When my local HD dealer wanted stupid money for tires and installation, I thought, what the hey, I'll wander into the local BMWHondaSakiZuki dealer and talk to them. They beat the best online deal I could find, including tax, and installed them for $60 a wheel, on the bike.

Just ask around your local area, and I'll bet you can find somebody with great prices.

 

Bike Bandit, watch for the sales when you can get great prices.

 

I go with whoever has the best price at the moment. I have bought from Dennis Kirk, Chaparral, STG, and Motorcycle Superstore. Never had a problem or issue.
