When i asked about possibly looking for the 100/90's, he said they wouldn't put on the smaller tire due to liability reasons. I thought that was odd but slightly understandable. This is a real suzuki dealer btw.


So yeah..i went through hell on the phone (as they charge 155 for both tires if you bring them in, 55 if you buy them from the shop, and frankly don't have time to try to figure out how to put tires on, lol). Took about 45 minutes to even find tires since you can't really even get Cheng Shin. I went through the brands with him and the only ones that had sets for my bike would've taken a month to come in.


Anyone else have issues like this getting tires? I think i'm going to start a year in advance next time.
:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: ONLY 45 min!?!?!? I spent 3/4 of the summer tracking down tires. Count yourself lucky. although I played back order game for a month or two as well before they told me they couldn't get the tires. so your struggle may not be over.

If you have to ask if anyone else had issues getting tires, you're either incredibly stoopid or you didn't read this thread. For your sake I hope you didn't read the thread. In the future you might try actually reading the thread before asking stoopid questions.
