Panama: Price of Pirelli MT60

Just to keep this thread going:
I was looking for some Michelin Anakee2 for two days in Panama City. No luck.
Finally I got me another set of Pirelli MT60 for the BMW 1200GSA today at [url=http://www.mphmotopartes.com/]MPH
Front 100/90-19 US$ 77
Rear 140/80-17 US$ 133

BTW, the BMW dealership does not (!) stock any tires. And the place where they sent me to get Michelins is not a shop but a warehouse - no-one around. I went there twice, no luck. When I was at mph (the only brand they sell is Pirelli) two days ago I was told they didn't have anything my size. When I was there again today they suddenly found the ones I needed. Lesson learned: don't trust a sales person in Panama. Make them allow you to go into the warehouse and have a look-see yourself!

Pirelli are smart and gaining a lot of sales in Latin America.
Prices are coming down on Pirellis at many bike shops in Mexico, the new Pirelli plant is now open for business in Mexico and that means more savings and availability. They used to be pricey, now they are much cheaper.
