I remember that. It was the boom town mentality. Everyone was trying to make a fast buck.

It sucks that one bad dealer sorta turns you off to all of them. Suprised that I have not heard more about the ride-on product on this thread. It is a sealant and balancer that is water soluble Idon't think it is for tubed tires.

I take the silence from the slimy SOB Chuck as an admission of guilt. He hasn't bothered to explain whether he's a liar, the OP is a liar, or that he's under pressure from Dunlop or MOCO to do what he did. He's made himself guilty and looks even worse by tucking his tail rather than coming to this forum and facing his customers. Truth is, he doesn't care.


Bump!!!

Sucks when it seems like a dealership does not seem to care about a customer.

Hmmm....no members here from Gillette?

Sometimes a little up close and personal works wonders...or not. It will be a year before I'm through there again. Might have to go in and have a conversation.

Yes it works in tubes. Matter of fact, I just put a front tire on last week, and used it in my tubed tire. Balances it perfect, and will seal a leak in a tube.

I was wondering if he chimed in yet. Guess not.

"or that he's under pressure from Dunlop or MOCO to do what he did"

Can't be that:
Dunlop say's there is no issue with mixing tread patterns of the E3 and D402
MOCO say's their stance on mixing tread patterns is the same as Dunlop'...s (that was told to me personal by the gal I made my complaint about Deluxe to)...

Bottom line is, there is no reason to force a rider to junk his E3 on front because he has a D402 on the rear !!!
