I usually stop at Motorcycle accessories on the business loop when in town for little things and gear. I get my tires online at Rocky Mountain ATV.

+1 What Norm said. RM ATV is good for tires, and since they ship from Utah you'll get them fast.

Yes, the plan is a 300 EXC! I have a price (and budget) in mind, but I'm being told the '08+ bikes are the best... may have to make some sacrifices to afford an '08+!

I would love to own a new KTM 350 XCF-W, but unless I can unload a kidney real quick, I will have to stick with a 2 stroke. My last 2 stroke KTM was a 1990 MX 250!

Bullshit! You buy all your tires from ME! RM ATV ships them quickly to ME- not you!

Greg@RME · 03-13-2013, 05:28 PM

Oh... forgot to mention, the White Wash ride for Friday is OFF! I will be meeting the new owner of my WR450 out there on Saturday, doing some riding them coming home without a bike!

OK, fair enough. Yes yes, whatever. Point about RM ATV still valid.
Now, have you got a D606 rear available. I also need some tools, your tire changing rig, your Audi, the 990, and a case of IPA. Can you get all that over to my place by tomorrow 9 AM?

Can I stop by Saturday and get mine changed? Wife gets mad when I do it in the family room!

Sure thing. He'll be glad to see you and will even change that tire for you. Just make sure you tell him your favorite beer, just so he can be prepared.

Thanks for the welcome, btw. I grew up in the mountains, but left for grad school. It's nice to be back.

Welcome back to GJ.

I saw in a following post you asked about shops. I'd say your best bet is Motorcycle Accesosies or maybe KTM. Perhaps not the cheapest, but....

Ulli, when a driver in a blue chevy 1/2 ton passes you, then later slows and gives you the finger due to your ADV sticker, the least you could do is tell him his right trailer tire was wobbling..late night spent in Montrose due to FUC#ED up trailer...come on, where's the love?

Colorado Uli · 03-18-2013, 03:57 AM

Ouch!!!! Sorry bro, my trailer tire inspection eyes were already off duty and I had girlfriend on the brain at that time (a character flaw, I know, but I'm only human).
Hope you got home without buying a whole new trailer.
