 Reasonable cost to have a tire installed
I just ordered a Michelin Premier A/S tire - what should I expect to pay to have this mounted?
I trust my dealer's work, but they tend to be REALLY proud of their work.

$15 at my local independent tire store. I must take the wheels off the bike myself and also remove the rotor and pulley from the rear wheel.

Wow! That is a great price. I paid about $117 to have mine done here, and was quoted a price of $250 from another local dealer.

Free......
Take them to wherever you buy your car tires. I did and they mounted and balanced for free. It took about 20 minutes.

$15.00 from Discount to mount; do the install yourself, after all you took it to discount to get it mounted!!
Oh, somehow that sounds dirty!!!

Yep, the stealers around here want $150-$200+ to install a rear tire and don't even bother with getting the drive belt tension and tracking right....I pull my own, get them swapped for $25 each at a local independent shop, haul them to a car tire shop to spin balance (front tires) and put em back on, making sure everything else is spot on in the process....My Spyder rides smoother today (in every way) than it did the day I rode it home from the stealer..Best way period....IMHO.....

Are looking at paying for the whole job, including removing and reinstalling the tire on the bike, or just to have the tire swapped out on the rim? If the latter I paid the local tire shop $10 plus a couple more I think for the liquid tire balance he put in.
Front tires were $22 each including dismount, mount, and spin balance.

Read the thread Lamont started about Centramatic Balancers. Beads, and their downside, are discussed some there.
