Actually I feel bad. I said I wouldn't use anything else and I had the beads when I got the car tire, but because I had it mounted by someone else and then I had to move I didn't get the beads in, but from previous experience I guarantee you it makes it faster. :whistling:

Jake wilson offers $10 coupon and avon offers $25 rebate on each tire. Wilson also does free freight. Got mine today.

I just got a set of Dunlop E3's. I saved $30.00 between the coupon and buying two tires.
Complete order with free shipping was $201.98.
Took only three days to deliver.....:thumbsup2:

I bought a set from Jake Wilson last year, still on the bike. Good service to the door, I was pleased. Did not have to return anything so not sure how they would re-act if there was a problem.

I have used Jake Wilson several times...infact I used thier sister site Rocky Mountain ATV for years when we raced dirt bikes. Both sites have great service with free shipping over $99 and most of the time have great prices...but as always you need to shop all the sites to make sure you are getting a good deal.
I got a new rear E3 in the shop now from them waiting to get a little more out of the current E3 before I swap it out.

I have never used the dynabeads. Good theroy but not sure about them just yet. They may not work on the Midnight bikes, since they are so fast. :big-grin-emoticon:

I've used Dyna beads and they worked for me. The tires on my bike now were balanced by the dealer and I don't think they are as smooth as the ones before with Dyna beads.

I too am looking at tires thru Jake, my question is when buying on line do we worry about how long ago they were manufactured, after reading last winter about tires with a long shelf life not being trust worthy wondering if it is safer to buy locally knowing what you are getting before purchasing

I just ordered a set from Jake Wilson. I went with the E III's for the '99. They were a little more expensive than the Venoms after you apply the $50 buck rebate, but I wanted to try something different. Pretty painless online. BTW besides the free shipping you get another $10 bucks off by buying two.... Didn't know that until I checked out. :)
