I had a kenda on the rear of the 250.... I never had any issues with it, actualy thought it was good.... More grip then the bike would put out, decent price, good ride

The tire I ended up going with was much cheaper than the Contis. I
picked up a Kenda Challenger, as it has a fairly good lifetime rating
for a rear tire, decent handling and is meant for "touring". Since I
daily my bike, I figured a long lived tire was more important than a
super-sticky tire, and anything had to have better grip and handling
than the worn out monster I was replacing.

$80 for 150/70/17, and then I paid $20 for it to be mounted, balanced,
and state tire disposal fee.

Well I'll be...
      Last time I put rubber on this thing was probably 8 years
ago... about 10,000 miles ago - and I remember getting a rear tire for
$40.... Some cheap Korean made tire.
      Maybe I just have to re-orient my financial perception!
      I'll check another couple places - btw to answer Kyle's
question that included take off and put on, new stems as well I think.
      Gotta go put some more miles on it!

I just got a set of Shenko's for $200. The mounting/balancing & new stems
were $27 per wheel.

They're inexpensive & have worked well for Me.

Hello All,
I was just given a price of $300 to put a set of new tires on
my NH. Please please tell me that this is one guy at a private bike
shop that doesn't get a good deal on tires!
Or - am I way off?
