Be cheeky and ask them in the shop if they will give you discount on the new set, to leave them, they may decide to put them on a second-hand bike they are selling.
It's probably going to be more hassle to sell em private. ps our local tip won't take tyres. |

I only paying for fitting- I got the Z6 elsewhere- so its just a local fitters.. .... they dont sell bikes.
I will prob keep them - as I dont want them to profit from it !.. and then chuck em meself cos I tight ! |

ok - heres the dilemma
I have no front paddock stand.!! fitted to loose wheels is £19 ... ride in ride out would be £28 .. Paddock stand is about £30 ... but then I would have it forever.!! and the local "coem to your house chap" and he would do it all at home- would be £30 .. all in- wheels off wheels on balanced new valvesetc.. and he can call tommorrow.. what you think>???? |

The place near me won't touch bikes but will happily lend anybody the tools to take the wheels off and put them back on.
