That sucks, had a front out Sat night, stranded in the ghetto for a few hours, but got it replaced before sun came up! I like Barney's off Gandy if you're nearby.

Default Cheap used tire

I have a michekin 2CT 190/50/17 with about 3000 miles in it. i replaced the michelins during the front tire recall. There's probably another 700 miles left on it. I keep it as a spare. You can have it for 25.00. if you think it will fit on your bike.
