    Tire Change?

    Hey riders,
    Since the season is slowly closing on riding I need to change my tires. I'm wondering what shops have the lowest prices and quickest turn around. Also is it anyones experience that its cheaper and quicker to take the wheels off yourself or is not worth the hassle.

    Thanks,
    motaboy

    Depends if it's worth the hassle to you or not, to take them off. It's definitely cheaper to just take in a wheel(s) for a tireswap, than it is to take the whole bike in. Some people will pay for the convenience though; That's up to your druthers.

    As far a shops go, and turn around times, I'm not too sure about that one.

    I rarely think of motorcycles without a little yearning. They are about moving, and humans, I think, yearn to move – it’s in our cells, in our desires. We quiet our babies with cyclic movement, and we quiet ourselves by going.

    This is where I'll be going this week if I get time. But it might not be worth the drive from Fort Collins, that is up to you.
