For those of you that are having your tires mounted on the spot, how are you doing that, towing, friend following?

I work in Manch so I usually just drop my wheels & tires off in the morning, pick 'em up at the end of the day...

I'm cheap, so if I can save a few bucks by taking my wheels off and bringing them to him, I do that.. No worries last time I think I was maybe there 10 or 15 minutes for 2 tires mounted..

was just there yesterday..

Looks like it's now $20 per wheel off the bike and $2.50 per tire for him to dispose


He tried cleaning the adhesive off the rim from the old weights. Seems Triumph painted instead of powdercoating the rims (I didn't know). Whatever he used, it took off a patch of paint.

Re: Read Here For Tire Changing!!!


I just visited Jim again yesterday and he mounted two new Avon Storms on my '03 Bandit 1200S. He has had a slight increase in his prices, it is now $25 per wheel on the bike, $15 per wheel off the bike.

I also got the bargain of the year inspection for $20. All said and done, I left his house street legal with new sneakers on her for a mere $75.00 (two valve stems - $5). Can't even touch that kind of service and reasonable cost at a stealer with a neon 10 foot pole and a couple strippers.

Thanks NESR for the heads up on Jim's service, I'm barely over $120 in cost for the two seperate tire changes he's done and an inspection.

Re: Read Here For Tire Changing!!!


I'd like to know the location (town, state) so I can have an idea of how far he is for me. I definitely want to utilize him as they charge a ton more at a local dealership.

Re: Read Here For Tire Changing!!!


hmm, i might try and use him when i need new shoes (prob at the very tail end of the season), he's only 40min N of me (straight up 93), and i'm sure there are some interesting twisties that i could take instead of slabbing...
