Default motorcycle tires

With a lot of people buying this kind of stuff online, I have bought tires online before as well. I was just wondering where you guys have found the best deals.
I am mainly looking for Dunlop, but anything that is a good competitive street tire for the right price will be considered.

Thanks for any input,
-Loomis

i got mine off ebay, they usually have good deals on tires, i got new shinko tires front cost 89 and the rear cost 130 free shipping on each not a bad deal and they came in 2 days. Although you have to make sure that you dont get retreads or anything like that when you get them like those tomohawk tires.

I would check around your area for motorcycle shops first
my friend got his brand new Metzler M3 rear tire + installation + tax for only $150

190/50 pilot power 170$ shipped from ronayers.com another 30 to get it put on... cost more for that one tire then all 4 on my car..

we really should make a thread a sticky that has updating prices on tires so we can always get the best deal! or maybe even do some group buys to get better deals.

I've heard real good things about Dunlop Qualifiers. Those will be the next tires I try.

I'm currently on my second pair of M1's. They're good, but do wear out fairly quickly.

Sharz, your right. I tend to think discount houses(maw, chapperal price wars rockk!!!) But , I have found screeemer deal at my little ol'e dealer, up the street. add in, the better deals, as you get some history w/ them, there paranoia(refusel) of mounting tires, they didn't sell ya... sometimes closer to home is cool !!!!!!!! Learn to decifer dates on tires, if you look local... I've avon azzaro sp's on my 94 1000f, happy w/ them, as I dont need race tires, on my sport tour. Clean and free' only smoke'n harleys!!!!!!! Ripp'n
