I had new tires installed yesterday on my 2014 R1200RT. I found a place in St. Petersburg, Florida, called 8 Ball Motorcycle Tires. They only do motorcycle tires. They were fast and inexpensive compared to the dealers. They also had all the major brands and styles in stock. Unfortunately, when I pulled out of the parking lot the rear tire got away from me and I dropped the bike. When the new tire hit the hot asphalt, it was like hitting an ice patch. Fortunately, there was no damage to either me or the bike. My ego took a big hit but only for a second. I know new tires can be slick, but I wasn't expecting that. I consider it a lesson learned.
