I paid about 15 or 20 bucks a tire last time. Haven't had to change them on the Buell yet....

I paid $20 the other weekend to have a rear tire mounted/balanced.

people PAY to have tires mounted? I never spent no money, I always buy my own tires and mount/dismount em myself. balance too.

If I had cast iron rims, I would do the same thing..

Neither the Yamaha/Honda or the Suzuki/Kawi shop will touch a buell rim

Aren't they all the same??

Thinking about just buying a no-mar for myself, then I can do all mine and my friends.

they're probably put off by the rim brakes

free when i do them myself... sometimes i'm willing to pay the 20 each at cycle gear...

I was PISSED in october last yer when the tire guy at the track charged me 50 bucks to change a rear for me... i'm never giving him another damn cent

I do it my self.

I'm still looking for a good balancer I just use the bike with no spacers or brake calipers at the moment. Works though.
