Details of a group buy being ran through the Pashnit forum.

Hi kaitsdad, Tim here.

Wanted to let you know about the Pashnit.com February 2007 Group Buy!!

Pashnit Forum Thread: https://www.pashnit.com/forum/showthread.php?t=9969

ITEM #1

...All Michelin Motorcycle Tires...

We also have the option of a bonus Item: All Yoshimura Exhaust Mufflers

Over a year ago, it was suggested that we try to do a group buy on tires. Well finally, it's here. For February 2007, we're going to do a group buy on Michelin Tires. This Group Buy covers the entire Michelin product line and is not specific to a particular tire model.

Fresno Motorsports ( https://www.fresnomotorsports.com ) was very pleased with our Pazzo Levers group buy during Jan '07 and has offered to sponsor our monthly Pashnit Group Buy once more. I have to give a big shout-out to the owner, Chris, for offering to work with all of us, and extend these great deals to the Pashnit Members & Friends of Pashnit.

Below are the most common & popular Michelin Tires...

pm me via the forum or email pashnit33 at yahoo.com for price on any Michelin Tire you don't see here.

All Michelin brand tires are in the Group Buy.

120/60-17 MSRP: 146.95, Group Buy Price: $93

Shipping:

Yes, we'll have to pay shipping. All tires will ship from Fresno Motorsports, zip code 93703.

A 190/50-17 weighs 15lbs, and a 180 weighs 14.

If you ship your tires to Fresno Motorsports- shipping is free.

3. No, you do not have to be a member of this forum to participate in the Group Buy. Tell your friends, riding buds, and fellow forum members if you belong to other forums. The Jan '07 Pazzo Lever Group Buy spread across 14 different forums simply by word of mouth, so no biggy on that.

4. This Tire Group Buy will last for the month of February 2007 only!!

Free Shipping if picked up at Fresno Motorsports:

If you are local to Fresno Motorsports, or have the ability to travel to Central California, Shipping is Free.

Tire Installation at Fresno Motorsports:

Chris, the owner of the shop, would like to set up specific Saturday where there is a Pashnit Tire Install Day. If you are local to Fresno, CA, or have the ability to get there, you head over there to get your tires and have them installed at his shop. He'd like to offer some special rates to those involved in this group buy, plus provide BBQ Day & Free Food :woot to anyone that wants to head over there on that day.

-----------------------

ITEM #2

There was a lot of enthusiasm for a small item to add to the group buy, so a Battery Tender was suggested. This item doesn't need much explanation. I could really use one too, and the price is right.

--->Battery Tender Junior 12v @ .75 amps

-Linky to Manufacture website

https://batterytender.com/product_info.php?products_id=4

-If you don't want this one, Link to see entire Battery Tender Product Line: https://batterytender.com/default.php?cPath=11

-If you want a specific model other than the Battery Tender Jr item, let me know, and we'll figure out a group buy price for it.

Retail price: $39.95,

Pashnit Group Buy Price: $25 (+$5 ship)

Shipping to Canada- $10 ship

Shipping Overseas - need to figure it out via the USPS website: https://postcalc.usps.gov

ITEM #3... Special Bonus Group Buy Item:

Yoshimura Exhaust Systems

k, Going to do something a little unusual and just throw this out there. I was asked if any of the Pashnit folks would be interested in a Exhaust system for their bike? I said have no idea, although seems everyone I know has an aftermarket exhaust system including me.

This Group Buy extends across the Entire Yoshimura Product Line- 4-in-1, dual cans, slip-ons, stainless, carbon fiber, all of it. There's just too many combinations to limit the group buy to a specific bike or type of exhaust, so I'm willing to try this & see what happens. If you want to put an exhaust system on your bike or know someone that might, now is the time to order whatever you want. The very nature of a group buy is a price that is below retail, below internet retail, just better pricing with our group order.

Details

1) To get in on this group buy, you're going to need to do a bit of research on your own.

Yoshimura's website is here: https://www.yoshimura-rd.com/07RRTRC.asp

2) Let me know exactly what you are looking for & I'll get back to you w/n 24 hours. I need all the gritty details. For example: On my Hayabusa I have a "4-in-1, low-mount, carbon fiber, oval". On my ST1100, I have 'Dual Carbon-Fiber Slip-ons'.

3) There is no minimum order required to get the group buy price. As soon as you place your order for your exhaust, it will be ordered.

4) This Pashnit Group Buy will extend for the duration of Febraury 2007 only!

How to Order & Pay for Yosh Exhaust:

After doing your homework, Contact me & we'll figure out group buy pricing for your new exhaust system.

-----------------------

How to Order & Pay:

Pay via several methods:

1) My Paypal address is 'mail at pashnit.com'- Make sure to put all the details on the PP Transaction!

2) Credit card - MC, Visa, AMEX, Discover - call me 530.391.1356

3) Personal Check- call me for mailing address

4) For tires, we need at least 6 tires to place an order (thus the 'group' buy)

California Motorcycle Roads

PS: A lot of people are renewing their yearly subscriptions to the CA Moto Roads portion of the website. It is not automatic. If you've got any questions about this, let me know.

PSS: What New on Pashnit.com: https://www.pashnit.com/whatsnew.htm

 
I just got the same deal emailed to me today too. I am thinking about ditching my tires early to get a set of these.

 
No public listing of Pilot Roads. For the ST bikes (heavier) they are the more common (over the Pilot Power).
Bounce, you are correct - however, it applies to all Michelin tires. I've PM'd Tim on the Pashnit forum, and he has already replied indicating that he will get me the pricing for a set of Roads today. He said that pricing is somewhere around $10.00 over dealer cost.

If anyone out there needs any Michelin motorcycle tires, they can be purchased via this GB.

Once I receive the pricing for the Roads, I'll post it. Shipping charges will (obviously) depend upon where they're shipping to.

 
good news. what i need is a contact address that doesn't require me to sign up for a forum i'll never visit again.

 
As a guy who's working on an Avon Storm group buy, I've found that SW Moto is tough to beat.

Michelin Pilot Power 180/55ZR-17 Rear Price: $128.95

Michelin Pilot Power 120/70ZR-17 Front Price: $104.95

Shipping: Free (when you buy two tires)

Total: $233.90

Avon Storm AV55 120/70R-17 Price: $106.95

Avon Storm AV56 180/55R17 Price: $136.95

Total: $243.90

I'll try again today or tomorrow to get those prices. I hate to sweat the guy when he's basically doing it for nothin'.

Hal, Thanks for pointing me toward Fresno Motorsports. I'll have to get by there and check' em out, now that I know they exist.
