Tire Mounting Price
So I am in need of a front tire on my 01 F4i. I ordered the tire off the net. I thought about trying to take it off myself, but the motorcycle jack I have only jacks from the bottom and I don't want to take the fairings off. If I took the bike in to the dealer how much do you think they would charge to take the tire off and mounting and balancing? It's too late to call so i'll take opinions until then.

Oh, and one more thing, my buddy that goes to MMI told me that it doesn't matter if a motorcycle tire is balanced. That it gives you like .01% better gas milage?

it has nothing at all remotely to do with gas mileage, if a tire is not balanced (especially on a sportbike) its very possible the wheels will vibrate, severity depends on how off they are
sometimes the wheel weights won't need to be changed, but you'd be an idiot to not have it balanced unless your just in a huge pinch
