How much is your time worth to you? Before going to Jim I paid over 100 bucks off the bike at a place just 15 minutes from my place... the next time around i took two hours out of my day and drove up from BOSTON but saved myself 70 bucks.

choice is yours... $100 or $30.... it's all about how much convenience is worth to ya

i'd give him a ring & make the drive again w/o a second thought

Riverside in Somerville


Riverside in Somerville only charges $35 to put on a tire.
You don't need to buy the tires there and they will even mount used tires. I had them mount some of my used race tires on a street bike before.

Who told you that was a good price? The guy at the register?

If you buy the tires from a dealer they will put them on for you cheaper then if you buy them elsewhere. Some dealers will not put on tires you do not by from them. MTR racing in Woonsocket will not, but if you buy from them it's (or was) $15 off the bike.

I'm well aware they blow. I was pointing it out. I went there with a tire and they told me no. It's only because they are greedy and didn't make markup on the tire also.
