    Source for buying tires online?

    My rear tire blew out a couple weeks ago, I'd like to replace it. I believe it's a 160/60 in 17", at the moment it's some kind of Dunlop. Thinking of mainly going to a Battlax BT020?

    The only site I know of to buy tires online is bikebandit.com -- can any of y'all recommend some others? Gracias, amigos.

    If you want Pirellis pm BostonMoto on this forum. Good guys!
    If you want Bridgestone or Michelin try this link.

    Must be a dozen threads on this. Since you're not local to MA, you probably couldn't use Boston Moto's services.

    Do a search for online stores. There's a great thread that has a listing on them.

    Bridgestone still makes the 020 ? kind of outdated tire if they still do


    swmoto is always a good online source of tires, but personally I get my tires cheapest right at my local dealer

    You can buy tires online? But how do they get installed?

    Sorry Randy, I meant the 021. I'd forgotten about swmoto, thanks! The last time I called my local dealer their prices were pretty high (even taking into account buying online needing shipping & mounting); they're not open today but I'll give `em a call tomorrow.
