I paid about 15 or 20 bucks a tire last time. Haven't had to change them on the Buell yet....

Thinking about just buying a no-mar for myself, then I can do all mine and my friends.

I do it my self.

I'm still looking for a good balancer I just use the bike with no spacers or brake calipers at the moment. Works though.
