2016 ST1300PA
Tires down to 1/32 at 7600 miles. I usually do a little better on mileage but these are the original Bridgestone Battleax tires that came on my 2016PA. One was a late 2015, the other a 2016.
I quick look on the internet showed price increases and back orders on some popular tires. So i came across some Dunlop Roadsmart lll at a fair price. [$312.75 installed and balanced] They have Roadsmart llll but the older models a little cheaper. Also put in for a $60.00 rebate from Dunlop July 1st to August 31st.
$252.75 when my rebate come in.
Part of the good pricing was the fact that i helped with dismount and mount / balance. a good friend who was in the hospital with Covid for 6 months is finally getting back on his feet. I have been buying tires from him for the last 10 years. I usually drop the wheels off and he has them done the same day. I ordered these Dunlops and a couple of days later he texted to say they are in. Then he said bring in your wheels. He is still on Oxygen and i was not going to let him work alone.
Along with the tires he asked me to drive his 2021 Goldwing with 140 miles on it. Aired up those tires and took it out putting some fresh gas in it on the way back.
I don't know if he will ever be 100% but it is great to see him up and moving.
Well i got some cheap tires and got to spend the day with a good friend. What could be better than that.
