I canceled and called Ron Ayers http://www.ronayers.com/, tire was on my doorstep in two days. Cost three dollars more. Great Company.

Ride Now Motorsports of Longwood, (formerly Cycle Rriders same owners though i think) said rear Metz was $299 list, charged me $200. plus $35 to put it on. Thought that was pretty good. Also changed out my rear brake pads with no labor charge.
Fyi This was at 10,000 miles, not bad. No thread showing yet but it was ready.

I have 12k on my Metzler's and they are in decent shape, for now. I am going to change them this spring, has anyone put any other brand on their bike (non-car tires?)

12 THOUSAND miles and they are still in good shape?
You gotta post a pic of this, mine last maybe 4000-6000 tops before they are really unsafe to be ridden on

11,000 miles and I'm up for a new front, new ME880 mounted on my rim (off bike) $215.30 OTD. Including 6% MI tax and $5.00 Disposal fee. (Goodyear Eagle F1 on rear looks good for another 25k)

Rear tyre prices are well over $400 AUS here and fronts about $250 to $280
I get about 3,500k out of the rear and 8 to 9,000K out of the fronts
