I have to give a plug to Pete's Cycle Parts on RT 69 in Wolcott, CT. I was referred to him by a friend when I needed a rear tire this past week. I priced Avon Azaro rear on several popular internet sites and came up with a best price of $138.99 + $14 shipping. Mounting/Balancing at local shop would be $25. Total $177.99 Pete's price for a Avon Azaro was $150 mounted/balanced and EBC FA85-HH rear brake pads for $30. (plus 6% sales tax). He ordered the parts and they arrived in a few days (shipping was delayed due to the holiay weekend). Once the tire arrived it was ready to go by the time I drove over to pick it up. If you live nearby in Connecticut, give Pete a call to get a price. He is a good guy and give a god deal. Tell him you were referred by the motorcycle training site. -- Steve Smith, COG #3184 COG Northeast Area Director (somewhere in south central CT)
