    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.

    Thumbs up 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.

    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...

    Re: Read Here For Tire Changing!!!

    Just got back from Jim's. Brought him my tires off the bike, I was in and out in 25 minutes!! He did a great job and was cool to chat with. He only charged $20 per wheel off the bike and $5 tire disposal. I cannot believe how fast he got them done and I only called him Thursday night!! I highly recommend him!

    Has anyone had this done recently? Is he still doing it? Figured I'd ask here before calling him out of the blue..
