MachineJoe Posted August 18, 2021 Share Posted August 18, 2021 I bought a set of Battlax T31 GT's back in March of 2020 front was $105 and rear was $131. Today I thought I would see what they wanted for them just out of curiosity. $134.00 front $161.00 rear = a $59.00 total increase Not outrageous for the times we are in just .... well ...... stinks Link to comment
Michaelr11 Posted August 18, 2021 Share Posted August 18, 2021 Tire demand has increased and supply was way down last year. Prices on all tires have increased the past twelve plus months. Why haven’t you used up a set of tires in the last 12 months? 😀😀 Link to comment
MachineJoe Posted August 18, 2021 Author Share Posted August 18, 2021 In a normal year I’m sure I would have. Now it’s time to make up lost time 😊 1 Link to comment

MachineJoe Posted October 27, 2021 Author Share Posted October 27, 2021 I peeked at American Motorcycle Tire online today - typical sales gimmickry or will the higher price be permanent ? Battlax Sport Touring T31 GT 120/70ZR-17 (58W), Front Aug price was $134.00 Their online advertisement - originally $199.96 now $133.39 (You save $66.57) (Nov '19 price was $105) Battlax Sport Touring T31 GT 180/55ZR-17 (73W), Rear Aug price was $161.00 Their online advertisement - originally $253.56 now $165.93 (You save $87.63) (Nov '19 price was $130) Link to comment
Bernie Posted October 27, 2021 Share Posted October 27, 2021 Check RockyMoutainATV.com. But prices on all tires have increased. Check the T32GT version, it maybe a better deal. Also don’t forget Bridgestone and Michelin are having Tire rebates this month. Link to comment

Hello Bernie, I've read your comments on the T32GT from another post and will be trying them. Rocky Mountain is out of stock on the rear tire so I'll be going back to American Moto Tire for this set as the rebate is for completed purchases (not placed and waiting) Thank you for giving the heads up about Rocky Mountain. They're on my radar now. Good till this Saturday https://www.bridgestonerewards.com/FindRewards Guten Tag! 1 Link to comment
2015 Blue RT Posted October 29, 2021 Share Posted October 29, 2021 I just bought a set of Metzler Z6 tires for about $155 shipped at RevZilla. I ran those on my GSX 1100 and liked them. I was able to use a promo code, I think otherwise it would have been around $170. 1 Link to comment
