stupid question and probably a derby but where is a good place to buy tires on line reasonably.  i tried the search option on the dmf but nothing came up maybe due to my impatience but any help would be great thanks

I've bought from the Motorcyclesuperstore a couple times, but check you local shops.  I found that my local Yamaha/KTM/Vicotry/Kaw etc. shop sells to me as cheaply as online and mounts on the bare wheel for $20.  I buy several tires per year too.

I'd rather support a local shop if I can.

Support you local shop.  I have discovered there is hardly any saving when buying tires online, unless it's one of those "Buy the rear and get the front for free deals"

But what if they don't carry your color?

This is just not true. At least where I am located. I priced tires at my local dealers and their prices were almost $150 more a set then what I was able to find online. I'm all for supporting local shops, but $150 is a little much.

I bought tires from motorcycle superstore about two months ago. $240 for a set of pilot roads. Free shipping.

Good to know, that's about the time I'll be re-shodding either the SS or the M750 or possibly both at those prices!
