tire install

Hi I just bought a 1996 Suzuki Katana gsx600f. And it needs a new tire. I have the tire, and plan on removing the wheel myself. Where can i go to get it installed? Can i just go to any tire shop or does it have to be a cycle shop? Thanks for your help!

Re: tire install

Most car shops won't have the adapters needed to change a bike tire.

Take it to any bike shop and they will do it; but it will cost you an arm and a leg; even OFF the bike.

If you or anyone you know is in the Military I reccomend going to the Oceana Hobby Shop; they have the adapters there for bike tires.

Re: tire install

thanks for replying cbr600f4..... it ended up costing an arm no leg. $52 at brickhouse, still kinda high since i can get 4 tires mounted and balanced for my car for the same price with them still on the car..
