They want 70 per tire...

Thats aout right somewhere in the 40 to 80 dollar range per tire, depending if they are taking them off the bike or not. I work in the auto industry and have connections to a bike shop. I paid 50 a tire and I'm having him replace the front fork seals while the tire is off. They are 30 years old.

Good to hear. I may have a headlight, will look later...

You still need a hear light or Turn signals?

I used to have continental tires on my cb 550 they wore great but are a little slipery in the rain the spitfires work just about as good as the D404 and wear longer (harder rubber) the D404 will need replacing between 8,000 and 12,000 miles for the rear and 16,000 to 24,000 for the front My continentals lasted twice as long but weather checked in the end so as far as tires go I would go with what everyone else recomends the spitfires are probably your biggest bang for the buck unless your road racing then if it was me i like the stick of the D404

I also have original turn signals for the cb 550 and have access to plenty more of them I think I paid $60.00 for 2 of them makes no difference front or rear he charges me the same
