Tire Changing in Chelmsford, MA

[Tricky Mike]

UPDATE:

As of 2014 I am no longer able to offer tire changing services. Thanks to everyone who I've met over the years. I hope to return to it someday, but at the moment I just don't have the time.

Here are the details:

FIRST ORDER OF BUSINESS IS THE LIABILITY WAIVER. Sorry if this freaks anyone out, but in today's rather litigious society it's just the way it is. If you don't want to sign the waiver I'll be happy to provide directions to the local dealership. They'll happily charge you $25,000,000,000.00 (per wheel).

FEES FOR TIRE CHANGING:

• $20 per wheel off the bike including balancing
• $30 per wheel on the bike including balancing*
• Add $7(each) if you'd like me to dispose of the old tires.

*Please bring any special tools required to remove your wheels (Ducati axle nut, Kawasaki Front axle hex key, etc. Don't know if your bike requires special tools? ASK!!!!!!!!)

Payment for mounting/balancing/disposal is CASH ONLY (exact change is a HUGE help).

PM me with any questions or to make an appointment.
Please keep this thread on-topic.

I may need some new rubber for the 29th track day, and will definitely need some after if I dont get em before. How much notice do I need to give you and when is the best time to do it? (Saturday/sunday/weekday evening?)

Sounds like a good deal!

[Tricky Mike]

I'm an accommodating dude.
If you want Pirelli's just PM me to make sure I have your size in stock. I have 180 Rears/120 Fronts in stock right now, so if you were ready to go I could get you set up as soon as tomorrow afternoon.

[NeverlosT]

I ride a 2007 VFR800 that takes 180/55 ZR 17, and 120/70 ZR 17, so it sounds like you have what I would need. I will let you know if I need them before or after the 29th. Thanks!

Just got back from Mike's. Best tire guy around, and he had beer for me while I was waiting.

Highly recommend.

Ya, Mike is good people. I was impressed with his profesionalism and motorcycle knowledge...


Mike, you know how to adjust valves on Ducati 1098?

Mike, you know how to adjust valves on Ducati 1098?

Nope. It's playing the shim game, I imagine. Motor needs to be 100% cold, too. Are you due?

Hi Mike,
PM sent yesterday.

[Tricky Mike]

Sorry about the late PM response y'all... was up at the track.

[McBiggity]

Hey Mike, got tires in stock for my 955i? 120/180. Still trying to get the 46mm socket to get my rear wheel off.

[Tricky Mike]

Yep. Got 120/180 DCIII's in stock.
46mm? Yikes.
Would a big-ass adjustable wrench work? I got one of those.

[McBiggity]

maybe, but since I have a nail in my front tire, I won't be riding it up there. 46mm nut in the rear and a nice 17mm allen for the front axle. got to love those damn brits

Let us know if anyone needs any other type of tire and we will get them to Tricky Mike.

Thanks,
