If you want to order online, then Motorcycle Superstore has good prices and huge selection. Picking up locally should be easy. Most dealers will keep some scooter tires, but dont give more than $25-$30 each for some Kenda/Cheng Shin crapola. .... :hi: There are some recent discussions on the forum regarding tires... :thumbwink:

Motorcycle superstore has the Kenda 329 in 2.75x10 for $16.99 each. Don't forget new tubes!

Bikebandit.com I've found them to be the cheapest and they carry almost every tire.

I usually buy locally, which I think is best unless you can find a good deal online.
I've ordered from Bikebandit also and have no complaint (so far).
The prices at Motorcycle superstore is pretty good.
There's also the occasional deal on fleabay.

Stop by and check out your local motorcycle shops as they may carry scooter tires.

Is shipping reasonable?

I haven't seen the Kenda 329 on BB for awhile now.

But I'm biased because I like that tire.

I have bought many tires from BB also, pretty quick shipping.

I got a pair from Amazon (Motorcycle Superstore) in March, $16.99 + 6.99 shipping for a total of $40.97, but the price is now higher.
