Metzeler is offering a free front tire with the purchase of a rear tire. They're pimping the Racetec track tire with this offer. Link is http://www.getmetzeler.com Thanks to Kinger from Belle City for the initial link!!! |

That's cool. I wish it were on the sportec, though. |

M1, I beleive you can buy the rear tire from any distributor. The front then cost $25 for shipping. |

I found the rear for $168 shipped at motorcycle_superstore.com. It was the best price I could find on the net. I think "retail" is around $225. |

It has to come from a "Parts Unlimited" authorized dealer. |

Both the front and rear tire are on their way. Kudos to Metzeler on making this quick and easy. I mailed my claim form last Thursday. It was processed the following Tuesday. Free tire shipped today (Wednesday). As a matter of fact, the front tire will most likely arrive before the rear I'm toying with putting the tires on the S3T for my fall trip to Deal's Gap. I'll give a road test update once they're mounted. |
