Has Anyone bought from Motorcycle Superstore I'm looking to buy my rear tire from them after my stealer quoted me a price of 290.00 out the door.

thx all

 

Never bought a tire from them but buy from them all the time.

 

I just had my rear tire replaced December 8, 2009
I bought a K591 Dunlop 160/70VB-17 tire from Motorcycle Superstore. $129.00, free ship, no sales tax, 3 day UPS shipping... and tire is NOT SECONDS, NO BLEMISHES, AND FRESH. I specifically inquired about this.

I paid at Wolverine Harley-Davidson in Michigan to do the job for me. Here's their fees.

Snap Cord/Jug/25..........$6.79
17" tube center valve......$22.36
Rim band 17"..................$3.16
Tire Disposal fee.............$2.00
Labor....1.1hr@80 per......$88.00


Total: $129.00 for tire
$122.31 Dealer charges

Hubby will need new tires for his Heritage Softail Classic and I'll get them from Motorcycle Superstore. Dealer quoted me over $200 for the same tire I ended up paying $129 for.

 

Bought tires from them about a dozen times over the years, my riding buds as well. Never a problem with their service. My last tire was the Metzler 880 Marathon for the rear of my FXDC about 3 months ago. Got 2,500 miles and so far wearing well.

My stock rear Dunlop was replaced at 7,500 miles.

 

Thanks for the info about Motorcycle Superstore and no doubt will order my tires from them.

Good info here on a source for tires - Motorcycle Superstore. Bookmarked web site for future reference. Thanks for post!

 

I managed to catch a deal at J&P Cycles for tires. I think most days MCSuperstore beats them, though.

I paid just short of $300. for taking my Super Glide in to the dealer for a replacement rear tire.

So, last month I paid about $230. for 2 upgraded Dunlops, tire irons, etc... for my Sportster, which I'll do myself. I'm embarrassed about the extra money I spent at the dealer for the one rear tire. Money that I seriously could have used elsewhere. But, I didn't ask about fees, taxes, labor after getting the $160 something quote over the phone for the rear tire, so that's on me.

For the record, they said they'd mount the tires for my Sporty for $45 a tire if I bring the wheels in off the bike.
