This was basically my birthday present to myself. Drag my friend on his newly running ninja250 and my fiance to a campsite in cold weather. It was awesome and I can’t wait to try moto camping again.

    My issue is not that I do/don’t mind paying someone it’s that shops keep closing and prices keep going up. I think last time I asked around I got a reply for $75 to mount a single tire.

        I was quoted somewhere around $300 for an unusual specialty tire a year ago. I only found out during the payment that they tacked on $140 for the labor. I paid, but I will never go back.

          That’s absolutely crazy, here even a main dealer wouldn’t charge more than 30€ for fitting (not counting weirdness with pressure sensors, mooses, tubeliss, or stuff like that). Well, maybe Ducati would charge more, but they have a reputation to uphold.

            Yeah. I was new in the area and funnily enough they are a licensed Ducati mechanic. They were well recommended by my coworker.

              Well, anything that has the name Ducati attached is automatically priced to put off the plebs
