I am considering getting new tires for the Rally ride. Are there likely to be good replacements available at the rally itself? Anyone have experience with getting a new set of tires there? TNX

If there is someone selling are they also installing?
Anyone know when we will see a vendor list?
I have been debating if I should buy new tires before I go or not.
I know I will be doing at least two tire changes on this trip. The rally tire vendors are swamped but, that is good reason too visit the Bier Garten.

Maybe this helps: You ride to the rally and it is 3,000 miles to get there. You have 2,500 miles on your tires and are not ready to throw them away, because your are not Bill Gates. Changing tires at the rally would help you make it back safe the 3,000 miles home from the rally. Understandable?
I got new tires once at a rally. A couple of years ago in Charleston. Metzelers. Made an apointment one day and had it done the next day. They had the bike for 2 hours.
Good point, Mike. I rode out to West Bend last Summer on the tail end of the life of my Metzler LaserTecs. Made an appointment with Milwaukee BMW the very next morning; spent about 90?? minutes at their shop. I liked the feeling of having fresh rubber to explore the area during the rally and to ride home on afterwards.Maybe this helps: You ride to the rally and it is 3,000 miles to get there.
