Just get the tires.

You can get Pilot sports from AZ Motorsports shipped for about that or less. The Head Honcho of VFR NW changes tires out of his garage pretty cheap. He's in Port orchard. If you're interested I could hook you up...

Renton Motorcycleworks is owned by a buddy (well, not that close, but I did buy two bikes from him) of mine named Ted. Go down there and tell him you're a friend of mine (Terry), and he'll hook you up. It may not be a LOT less than $300, but I think he can get you into a set of Metzlers for that price. OR Seattle Cycle Center, talk to Lisa, say you're a friend of mine (mention that I'm the asian dude with the Dragon painted leathers) and she'll get you hooked up. Either way, I guess I won't be saving you but $10... but I think you might get better tires for that price.

Hey Guys, I used to live in Portland and while there, I made a lot of friends on the VFR NW mailing list. The head Honcho from the list got let go from Boeing a year or so ago and is going back to school to be a bike mechanic. To supplement his income he changes tires in his garage in his spare time. He has a sweet set-up and he's a hell of a nice guy. Anyway, There was some talk about high tire prices a few threads ago and so I sent him an email to see if he could use some more business. He said sure! His name is Kenn Engstrom and he lives in Port Orchard: KennVFRidr@aol.com If you're interested, send him an email and tell him that Tom Burdick sent you his way from the R1 Forum. He gets a bit busy with school sometimes, but he'll sling tires for cheap if he's got the time.
