Just as the subject reads. ;)
I'm getting new tires very soon for my Kawi EX500 and was looking for somewhere to get them mounted/balanced. I'd prefer to pay as little as possible...wouldn't we all! :lol:
Anyway, suggestions would be welcome! Thanks guys.

The guys at TFOG hooked me up last week with two sets of tires. I don't know what they charge for "on the bike" prices but it was only $12/wheel off the bike.

Check with TFOG, If I remember correctly they were $20.00 for front and rear last time I was there. I know they are well below any stealership for prices.
They are a site sponsor and good people.

Try Faster performance or TK motorsports or Tfog if you buy your tires through them I am sure they would hook you up with a deal on mounting

Thanks guys.
I'm relatively new to the site and to the motorcycle world as a hole (just under a year). Can you point me in the direction of TFOG?
Thanks again for holding my hand through this process!
EDIT: nevermind. The Search is my friend. FOund their site. Thanks again fellas!

On an additional note TK is now carrying street rubber, almost all of the popular brands, and they usually mount and balance the tires they sell for free, race tires for sure, streets probably also.

Thanks Bueller.
I have the tires all lined up. Set of Pierelli Diablos. I am picking them up for $178 from a guy local. He had bought them off of 411parts.com but while waiting for the new tires, he traded in his ex500 for a SuperHawk 996 (lucky bastard!!).

hheheh Hey Butthead, he said mounted! Bringing back memories! ha!
TFOG got back to me. $39 mounted/balanced per tire if I ride it in. $23 if I take them in myself.
