For example: the MSRP for a Michelin Commander II in a rear tire size is right around that.

I ride these, I maintain them, I change their tires, I love them. They are my mules, my horses, my means of transportation, and my access to sanity. Nearest motorcycle dealer is 60 miles, nearest Triumph and Harley dealers are almost 200 miles. These guys are MINE, not some dealer's.

Doesn't make me better, doesn't make me anything - but different. Very different and, apparently, much more happy.

Naaah. You're just happy 'cause you got a gorgeous Road King.
