Re: Tyre Change Charge
My local(Marshall motorcycles)charge £15 for a loose wheel and a bit extra to balance.I also take the old tyre away,no idea on ride in n out jobby.When I had the VFR1200 Wickford motorcycles wanted £90 as a ride in and change 2 tyres,suffice to say I went elsewhere and have never been back to him.
