Needed a new rear tire for 2000 Kat 750. Call my usual dealer who I think is usually a bit steep. I ask for a price for the Dunlop D205 rear tire.
He says $194 for the tire!! Almost shocked I ask if that includes mounting and balancing. He says if I bring him the wheel it will be another $40 for mounting and balancing!!!! I hang up and call another dealer about 20 minutes away. For the same tire he says $135 and for mounting and balancing another $20. Well, you can guess where I went, and where I will continue to go. I realize the dealer will be more than a mail order place, but that first guy was nuts!! Ever happen to you???
