    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Going to need a set of tires for my GS100 project bike.Does anybody know a supplier that ships reasonably to Canada? Thinking of trying Shinko's but not sure they even sell those here.
Thanks
 
The best deals I've heard off are from Pete's Superbike in Montreal http://www.petes-superbike.com/english/petes-superbike.html . A lot of the sportbike crowd on the GTA site (Toronto) swear by them. My buddy also just placed an order with them for some Metzlers for his Honda Pacific Coast (don't ask why anyone would ride one of those plastic barges). He reconed the price was at least 30% lower than local competition.

Careful with the postal strike situation as this might cause the shipping costs to go up if they need to ship UPS or whomever.

Can't you get anything locally?

Cheers,
Spyug
 
Looked there,seems mostly radials.Have to do some more looking.Just getting ideas here.Haven't asked my tire guy here yet.Getting anything for the 750 was hard last year.

The people on my local forum like to order from here. They are based in Quebec so I don't know how that would affect their rates to you.
I haven't ordered yet, so no personal experience.

EDIT: You guys are fast...
 
I've seen non-radial Shinkos at local bike shops in The Okanagan Valley, so check around, should be available...
 
I don't know whether this is a good deal or not, but i just got a pair of Kendl's for my 750e for $150 from Modern. Also I have heard of people having their tires shipped to the Point Roberts Post Office.
 
Actually getting tires is probably going to be done in the spring.Seeing what's going on kind of deal.Being on the Island makes Point Roberts a PITA to get to.Think the postal strike should be done by then.Apperntly back to work legislation Monday.
