I just had mine done at Faster Motosports (forum sponser). Where do you live? Do you need the tires and install, just tires, or just install?

Call(or PM) up Kim-n-Dean, he got a machine, might even show you how to do it.

Yup. If you know how to use the machine, no charge. Otherwise $10/wheel off-bike, mount and balance.

I called Adventure (and most everyone else). They said they'd do the front for 20 and the rear for 25 off the bike. On the bike was 80 or 100. That's about the cheapest I've found.
I PM'd K&D. Hope to hear something soon.

Twin Peaks worked for me. 20 bucks for the rear and it took less than ten minutes.

I called TP and was quoted $65 for both off the bike. TriCity was around $80 and Kawasaki was $45 or 50. The new Powers look sweet on the R6. :D

I had it done like two weeks ago, I have had them do it sevral times now, always at 19 bucks a pop. Talk to Luke and mention the price, the only thing i can think of is that they no longer do it at that price unless you buy the tires there, though the first time they did it for me i bought the tires somewhere else as well.
btw they will match pretty much any price you can find on tires, even online.
