Member Contributer SCguy Posted August 30, 2015 Member Contributer Share Posted August 30, 2015 My rear tire is on its last legs, I need a new one soon. It'll get me to the Glacier area easy, but I don't want to push it. I'm looking for someone I can ship a tire to, and if you have mounting equipment, that's a plus. I'm in Columbus, Montana now. The Honda dealer wants over $450 for just the rear tire. Thanks in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member Contributer Cogswell Posted August 30, 2015 Member Contributer Share Posted August 30, 2015 There are Cycle Gear stores in Spokane and Boise if you're headed either direction. They list a PR4 rear for less than 1/2 that price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Contributer SCguy Posted August 30, 2015 Author Member Contributer Share Posted August 30, 2015 I had been going to head north to Banff, but now I'm not sure. I can get a PR4s with one day shipping for $190 from Amazon, I just need to find a place to ship it to. I'm thinking Kalispell is my best option, but I'm staying in Missoula tonight and I'll check around town first thing tomorrow morning Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member Contributer Cogswell Posted August 30, 2015 Member Contributer Share Posted August 30, 2015 Missoula's a much larger town than Kalispell, so I would think you're already where chances are best. I don't recall any posts in recent memory from anyone in that area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member Contributer SCguy Posted August 31, 2015 Author Member Contributer Share Posted August 31, 2015 Missoula was a bust, but I found a Yamaha dealer in Hamilton, MT that installed a new PR4 rear for $246 out the door. $208 for the tire, $35 mount and balance plus tax. They also fixed some rivets that broke on my Yoshi pipe for free. Big Shout out to Al's Yamaha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VFR4Lee Posted September 1, 2015 Share Posted September 1, 2015 Little steep on the tire, but shipping I guess. Not bad at all on the labor, cool deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Contributer wrestler Posted October 13, 2015 Member Contributer Share Posted October 13, 2015 My faith in the human race is renewed each time I log onto VFRD. The ride reports and incident resolutions are always good news. Good luck, SCguy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
