Sounds about right for the dealer....check with indys...should be closet to $300...

 

I'm looking also. Shame the front and back don't wear out at the same time. I have a new BW on the back but the front is looking a bit worn.

I'd kinda like to dress the bike up a bit with fat whitewalls, but think it would look sucky with red tins.

 

Got my Dunlop WWW MT90B16 F and WWW MU85B16 R for less than $300 from Dennis Kirk. Local Indy shop R&R with one new tube for $115 ($100 for the R&R, $15 for the new tube). Dealer would have charged at least $70 more per tire and over $250 to install, plus tube(s).

Have your Indy check and replace the brake pads if needed. It is the easiest time for the change. If S/He is cool, S/He should only charge you for the cost of the pads. That is what my Indy did. My rear pads needed replacing.

 

The guys are right. $500 would be about right at the dealer. I just replaced the rear; got the tire from motorcycle-superstore for $138 (free shipping), tube from the stealership for about $25, and Indy charged me $60 to install and $2 to dispose of the old tire. Same shop charged me $110 for front and rear on the Monster plus the cost of the tires.

 

I just had front and rear changed out for $525, but while waiting I ended up buying other things that I've been looking at so the actual cost was almost $700.

 

You are wrong. They would look great on your bike

You have a deep red and that contrast makes all the difference. Mine might be a bit light. That's why I'm thinking about black rims/chrome spokes and whitewalls...

 

Click the the link. Same bike as yours with www

 

Just called the HD dealer tonight. for my 2011 Fatboy Lo, the front OEM is 219.95 and the rear is 248.95. That is tires only. I about **** myself.

 

Went to Road Rider in San Jose. A huge motorcycle store.
I was right at $300 OTD for both. ($25 ea M&B)
I had to R&R the wheels myself, but big deal. Good chance to
clean in where you can't other wise.
They were (OVER) $50 less per tire than the dealer (For the same
exact tire)
These were for the stock Dunlops. (I know!!!)
Might try the E3's next time. He didn't have the
right ones at the time. I (almost) went Metz. The
made in Brazil threw me.

I'm for supporting dealers & local business . . . but not getting hosed
