    G,day,

    went to the dealer today to find out the price on a front tyre for my sporty (21")

    Does $250 fitted sound like it on the high side?  they were talking the dunlop.

    what options do i have for tyres? or are we limited on options?

    al.

    Hilly,

    when i brought the bike (6months ago) the previous owner had put another Dunlop on.

    the ride has 13000k on it (which the dealer thought was odd for replacing the front tyre), but when i picked it up it was under inflated.

    removing and refitting the rim is no problem, just not the tyre.

    I always use Avon vennom, i've never liked Dunlop.

    $250 for 21" sounds a bit high i would go to an indy you can get Metzler & Avon as well in 21" front i would think $180 fitted
