This is NOT a What Rear Tire Thread. I've chosen a car tire replacement. This is my first Spyder purchased in 4/15. It was Squared Away in 4/16 @3,000 miles on the odometer. I currently have 8800 miles on it with a week long trip planned in 3 weeks. I plan to replace the OEM Kenda @the end of the riding season. My dilemma, not being a DIY guy, is who to have it installed by??????
My installation options are:
1. Large volume local bike shop, or
2. A Can-Am dealer 2 hours away??????
As always I am thankful for the advice of the members of this forum.

Real easy to do. A jack, a socket set, a 36mm socket, a torque wrench, some painters tape. Call me, I'll walk you thru it. Joe

If you do, Do it yourself, Take Joe's offer! After the first time, you wouldn't hesitate doing it yourself.
