Re: Good Price for a rear Avon Storm
Aside from the people comparing apples and oranges (buying off the net, and taking them for fitting, or fitting them selves, or comparing different tyre brands) I'd say £120 is probably a little over what you'd hope to pay.
However, everyone's prices have gone up lately, and for ride-in ride-out, with them disposing of the tyre, I pay around £230 for a pair of fitted tyres (Michelin PR2s & Dunlop Road Smarts) for my ZX6R. The SV's tyres should be a smidge cheaper, but still makes that about right. Jambo

Re: Good Price for a rear Avon Storm
I just had front and rear Storms fitted for £210.
Rode in on the way to work, picked it up on the way home, so no messing with even taking the wheels off. Worked out well as the guy gave the bike a bit of a once over as well, kind of like a pre-service check. I used Revs on Beverley road, so fairly local for you Steve. |

Re: Good Price for a rear Avon Storm
I paid £96 fitted to a loose wheel today, they would have wanted another £30 to fit to the bike so i guess the same sort of price.

Re: Good Price for a rear Avon Storm
I think you all have rip off merchants for tyre fitters. I can't believe how different people have given such different prices in their quotes for the same tyre and service.
My fitter is so customer focused, recently he didn't think I needed to spend 90 quid on replacing my front tyre. I felt there was something wrong with it, he did not. At the end of the day it was me spending money, but he'd rather not 'hard sell' if its not necessary! Just wish he could wangle that Avon garantee of free tyre replacement with puncture etc...had a few of those over the last year, and they've always been just out...grrrr!

whereabouts is he Dizzy? I might be in W. Yorks over the weekend, however I doubt he'll be open.
