strange... they say add $54 for the 180/55ZR17, but the "B" is flat rate?

Usually you will pay $20 or so more for a "B"

$199 for a set !

$179 for the next order !

Think I will order 1 set Tuesday another Wednesday with the credit, and another Thursday with another credit.

I really need 2 fronts and 3 rears.... hmmm...

I need 190/55's. If they were at the $199 price that is exactly what I would do!

 
Just ordered two sets with the B spec rear. and donated $1 to the road racing air fence fund that buys air fence to deploy at road racing tracks around the country. $400.98 shipped

Screaming deal

 
Hmmmm...... For that price I may have to break down and buy some even if I don't need them.

GP

 
well I am ordering them too.. but having never ordered from them before I wanted to see what else they have for "my ride". (i entered 09 Yamaha FJR1300..)

Luckily, I can also get a a nice RK 520 GBXSO X-Ring Gold Race Chain - 120 Links for $109.99.

So that begs the question, do I use Yamaha Chain Lube, Honda Chain Lube, or WD 40 on that bad mama jama.

(sorry , flashing back to my yamahafz1oa.com days)

Looks like this was a fire sale..

B's are no longer appearing.

All I see at the good price is the C rear tire. Says it's the oem for the Tiger. Any reason I can't use it on my KTM Supermoto t? On my second set of PR2 right now.

 
Motosport were great, 3 days shipping to Toowoomba, Australia for only $29 and good to deal with.

Their agents don't do international shipping on tyres any more, bugger.

Thanks for the donation to the air fence fund. I hit head first into an air fence (that very fund helped put there) lining the concrete NASCAR wall at Loudon in '08. Sprained the heck out of my neck muscles but saved my life no doubt. Roadracing World published my story in the April 2010 edition.

I donate every time I renew my subscription to road racing world. The cause is very worthy cause. I believe Loudon was the reason the fund started IIRC. Glad it was in place when you needed it and it did its job.

Fixed it for ya and...

+$72.00 for the FatSider 190/55

Much steeper than other outlets/vendors for this up-sizing.

I just re-looked at my order and there is only one tire in it, and it is the front tire..

Me thinky I made my order AS they were running out of the B-spec. That make hulk sad.

 
Ok gents, I give up. I've researched the rear size of 180/55/ZR17 in the "C" version and came up with no definition for the rating. I've checked the fitment guide on the Michelin website and it shows the PR2 in that size in A, B & C, all noted with the (73W). I know the B is for two up riding, but can't figure what the C rating means. Any ideas?

I just looked at this. The C spec for Triumph Tigers is the only 180 rear for that price. Dunno the difference, but $54 upcharge for the other 180.

Looks like I'm too late for this unless someone knows what the C spec tire is exactly.
