great deal on tires

Hey guys, I just called to order a new set of tkc-80's from
tiresunlimited.com, and the guy said they're running a blowout sale on
Continental Enduro Pro CC160's (which I'd never even heard of) for
something like $25 a set. Yeah, that's for both the front and rear
together. Can't beat that deal, so I jumped on it. There's a pic of
the tire at
http://www.tiresunlimited.com/images/metzeler_moto
rcycle/enduro_pro.gif.
I think he said they only have about 17 pairs or so left.
I don't work for this vendor, honest. I just thought this was a great
deal. The tires prolly suck though.

I checked that website and couldn't find the great deals you are
talking about. I still think this is a better deal:

That's $2 less than what I can get it for thru my local motorcycle shop.
And my local motorcycle shop gives me free mounting and balancing (not
that I really *need* it since I have tire irons, but it's a PITA enough
to deal with these thick-sidewall tires that I'm happy to have them do
it). Shipping and taxes are about equal.
In short, check your local motorcycle shop first if you're in a market
where there's lots of competition.

I have a gearhead dn the street that will mount the tires for 25
avocados from our orchard. I am sure that is cheaper--My cost on
avos is 25 cents each. Want to buy any avocados? You can pick your
own at 35 cents each

It's true, the deal is real! The website doesn't show 'em, so I
called. The guy said they have 11 sets left, so I grabbed 2 sets for
a total damage of $68.82 shipped!

The deal the salesman quoted me isn't listed online - apparently you
have to call. On the telephone. YMMV.

The link for the pic didn't work, so her's one that does:

It's a more street oriented tire, apparently. I love my TKC's, so I'd bet these are great if you spend most of your time on the street.

Most of us want more lighting -I have a moderate draw solution w/ 2 bulbs
per say.

This little 55w driving light, with a separate switch, is great at filling
the small lighting voids of the stock lamp. It is also mountable on my MX
helmet, using the extendable 3' extension wire loam I wired it with.
