Hookman49 Posted April 21, 2003 Share Posted April 21, 2003 Now that I have decided to go with the Avon's where is the best place to buy them? Ken Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
v00d00child Posted April 21, 2003 Share Posted April 21, 2003 www.swmototires.com Excellent response, no shipping on pairs, honest dealings. just bought a set of Pilot Roads for the bird, and a pair of 45/46 for my FJ1200. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bar10dah Posted April 21, 2003 Share Posted April 21, 2003 You can usually find them a good deal cheaper online, but then you run into the problem of finding a shop that will put them on at a fairly reasonable price. I got lucky. My local dealer gave me a great price (only $10 more than the best price I found online) and installed them for $11.99 (off the bike, of course) per tire!

bbirdxx2000 Posted April 21, 2003 Share Posted April 21, 2003 Ken, give Hollinks a call explain to them If they can come close to mail order I will order with them :cool: , Any smart dealer will get your business and make a little money instead of none at all :wink: , It has worked for me. Especially if they within $30.00 a set of M.O. I would spend the extra $30.00 for the potential hassle. :cool: Harry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete in PA Posted April 21, 2003 Share Posted April 21, 2003 Yes, as long as you have someone to mount them SWmototires is cheapest quick shipping. This year the guy I always went to doubled his price to mount and balance.He's a small private shop and has always grumbled when I bring in tires from mail order. So I called around and found another small private shop and had them mt. and bal. (off bike) for $10 each. :grin: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XXTi Posted April 21, 2003 Share Posted April 21, 2003 Who installed and balanced your tires RC? I'm planning on getting a set of 45/46's online and I need to find a place to get them installed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

matey_peeps Posted April 21, 2003 Share Posted April 21, 2003 i'll agree that SWMOTO tire is about as good as they come, i ordered my avons monday and had them friday. i'd steer clear of MAW, i ordered some turnsignals 4/1 and i still dont have them...it's not the first time it's taken an inordinate time to get me my order either.

RichardCranium Posted April 21, 2003 Share Posted April 21, 2003 Jim, Honda of Tulsa...though they recently went up. They now charge a whopping $15/tire for carry in's. :wink: Brett Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
