Any Motorcycle Superstore connections here?
 

I need a set of tires and would like to get the same ones, but they've jumped in price. Anyone know someone cool at Motorcycle Superstore that'll help me out?

What do you want?

Sportbiketrackgear usually beats most prices.

They're the same price.


I bought a set for a lot cheaper than what they are now. Since I'm a repeating customer I was hoping to get them at the same price.

I've noticed a lot of tire prices on the rise (sale threads notwithstanding).

Tell me about it. I got the pair for $189. Now it almost $250!

You watch: they'll blame the incident in the Gulf...

So i should expect bp to pay the extra?

WTF tires are you looking for?

D616's

That is a rain tire, right? Why this? Any particular reason?

Because he rides in the rain.... :D

Its not a rain tire, its just good in rain. I want another set because i am happy with them.

tires in general have risen considerably in price. late last year. forget the reason they gave but it wasn't the gulf spill. priced tires for my truck an the guy gave me the whole get 'em now they're going up speech. of course I thought he was just going for pressure sale so I waited. yeah bad idea on that one. LOL paid almost $100 more couple months later.

Hmm I have an extra set I ordered this year for track season, was going to sell thm but knowing this I may hold on to them.

Here's a review of the D616 against the Pirelli Scorpion Sync: http://canyonchasers.net/reviews/tires/d616vSync.php. If the Pirelli is better for your needs, The Motorcycle Superstore sent me a coupon good for 42% off Pirelli's. Use the code "M320-PIRELLITEN" at checkout. Expires 10/10/10 at midnight PST.

We went over this in macroeconomics the other day.. we placed a tariff on tires from china because they were selling them for less then what they were costing to make. In response, they placed a tariff on chickens.
