What's the going rate for Pilot Powers?

Whats the going rate for pilot powers?

(or a pair of good sports bike tyres.)

I just got given a price of $670 for pilot powers fitted.

Seems expensive, I usually try to stay under $550 for a pair of hoops...

bay city motorcycles in Tauranga. $480 fitted worth the ride down and not a bad ride either.

$670 is way too much. I wouldn't pay more than $550.

just paid $500 in Takapuna fitted.

0800 200 660 Bay City Motorcycles. Talk to Mark. GOOD! VERY GOOD! EXCELLENT! (and other words to describe the pleasure I have derived from their service and prices)

For Pilot Powers?

**babyblade250rr** · 21st December 2007, 21:55

nope $350 they had a michelin special on that week or something

on ya. Not all tyres are created equal. I took a metzler Z4 deal at $400 for 2 and they are "ok" Not super confident with them but they arent really bad. Probably suit a bit more of a criusing style to be honest.
I usually run Pilot Roads which are fantastic. PP disappear too quick.

north of $550 and you gotta be shopping around but I guess that is why you started the thread in the first place.
