Yep, Tiggers a helmet whore and a shop-a-holic. You should see the nice "Jordan Suzuki" Purse he got to go with his bike for when he goes shopping.

I have bought from http://www.swmototires.com/ and Cycle Gear (CG purchase was with the tire road hazard warranty thingie because I am good at finding sharp objects in roadways). I typically yank the wheels and take them to CG for mount/balance.
I have heard 2nd had that http://www.motoxoutlet.com/ isn't a bad place, but have no direct experience.

Ok,you don't know me but you can trust me on this...if you liked the Continentals/Maxxis tires,you are going to cream your panties if you try the Pirellis. I've tried several brands of tires and I always seem to come back to Pirelli. They make great tires,period. The Contis retail for about $200 a set,the Pirelli REAR retails for $200 by itself. I've heard good things about Continental but the accolades are usually followed by the words..."for the price". But if you are stuck on the Maxxis or Conti tires,I'll search for you and let you know!

I like a tire that will last a while because I have to make my money count, ya know? I'm in the position where I can get an extra set for later. Ummm...also if anyone knows where there's good deals on chain and sprockets for my bike (NO ALUMINUM!!!), I'd appreciate that info too as I'll stock up on that too.

Rogue, what size tires you need. I have some pilot power takeoffs that are in realy good shape. I have another set on my futura and have over 5k miles on them and theyre holding up fine.

Store here bout 45 minutes north of me that sells all their tires under cost, and only charges $10 to mount to a rim. I got my last rear Dunlop Qualifier for a shade over $100.
