Yuo ride the bike in, they pull wheels & reinstall freshly shod wheels, Very spendy. Installed can be, you walk in with wheels in hand & they replace the rubber, much less spendy..

It makes air checks much easier. It might have to be ordered-in for you, but they work well. I have the MT66 Route tires and I like them a lot. Much better than the OEM IRC.

You can reuse tubes,.. if you're Bill...
but, Grin

It's recommended that you replace the tubes with new tires,.... once they've been inflated for a period of time, they loose elasticity and are more likely to get pinched or inflate a little twisted in the new tire....
I never used to,.. when I rode dirt bikes, 'cause I got flats all the time, but now, I go ahead and replace the tubes too.
Definitely get a 90' angle valve stem and tell them to mount it to the brake side...

Ludicrous Speed !... ... Huh
