Hey, I recently installed a Goodyear 205/65/16 on my 06 1300 myself. I installed the 16" 1800 wheel also. Looks great and rides as well.
I had a motorcycle shop remove the original tire, $10. But went to 3 bike shops and they wouldnt touch the caar tire.. So I bought a tire iron and set the wheel on a 5 gallon bucket and 5 minits later I had the tire on. Then I balanced it myself as well using the lead stick on weights I got from a tire store.
The Goodyear was $120 delivered to my door.
I live in Boerne. 20 miles north of San Antonio off the 10. If you want help Im your man.
The whole job is easier than you might think.
I tried to post more pics hee but I cant get the damn thing to work....:doorag:

I was thinking of it this time around but I bought two kenda's on eBay and I dio the install. Local shop here in Denton lets me use the machines for 10 bucks. I guess running a NTB and FS gives you that ability.
