Guest Posted January 2, 2012 Share #2 Posted January 2, 2012 I always bought my tires from Competition Accessories but they listed your size at 199.95 so id say that Jake Wilson got them beat pretty good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flb_78 Posted January 2, 2012 Share #3 Posted January 2, 2012 If that includes shipping, that's a pretty good price. I did a quick search and couldn't find a better deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flb_78 Posted January 2, 2012 Share #6 Posted January 2, 2012 I was going to ask, but I thought that maybe it was for your V-Star instead of the Venture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaptainJoe Posted January 2, 2012 Author Share #8 Posted January 2, 2012 I need tthe 15 inch rear tire though and they are $156?? I dont know what i was thinking, my 650 vstar custom 2005 takes a 15 inch also 170/80-15 (77H) Dunlop D404 Rear Motorcycle Tire Fits: 2005 YAMAHA V-Star 650 Custom Part# 1200470005 Our price: $103.99 so theoretically since the first number is width... i could run a 15 inch E3 on my 650...it would just be a little narrower 150 instead of 170?... I ordered from Jake wilson and should get on jan 10 with free shipping... Thanks Joe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RandyR Posted January 2, 2012 Share #12 Posted January 2, 2012 I need a new front tire on my RSV. The Metzler has plenty of tread, but is cupped and gives a shaky ride. I had a new Elite-III put on in Cody this past summer, so might as well try one up front. If I needed a new rear too, I might try the new Michellin.

milkman Posted January 3, 2012 Share #13 Posted January 3, 2012 Check with local dealers. I priced tire at Jake Wilson, Avon Venom. He wanted $143.99 for front tire. So called local Yamaha Dealer. Told them I wanted a price, same tire, and I needed a deal. He wanted to know whom he was dealing against. Told him Jake Wilson & the price. He sold me a tire for $140.00 (their normal cost, $198.00) plus mounting balance. I like dealing local as if I have an issue with the tire, much easier to get it taken care of. Riding season too short to wait on a replacement from company. Just my two cents. Larry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dunsonaventure Posted January 3, 2012 Share #14 Posted January 3, 2012 I feel the same way. Always give my local dealers the chance to lower the price ,and they always come through. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pegasus1300 Posted January 3, 2012 Share #15 Posted January 3, 2012 http://www.rockymountainatvmc.com/p/-/-/-/-/-/-/140032/ $127.99 with free shipping. It's also the heavier 78H rating. Rocky Mountain ATV and Jake Wilson are divisions of the same company. They both have great service and offer free shipping on orders over 100.00. Rocky Mountain is more 4wheeler/dirt bike oriented and JW is streetbike/touring oriented. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptainJoe Posted January 3, 2012 Author Share #16 Posted January 3, 2012 The other reason i went with Jake Wilson, is dates stamped on tires. The front tire i ordered earlier last year was only 3 months old... Seems they turn over their inventory quickly and keep a fresh stock of tires...
