1200 GS Tires in Mendoza - Help!

**nikb** · #1 28 Nov 2005

Hi All,

I can get rear tires for my 1200 at BMW in Mendoza but the cost is a little steep, anyone know of any places around here where I may pick up a 150-70-17 tubless tire - off road would be better? I also need to find a 130-80-17 for friends I´m travelling with, same issue!

Go on you know you want to help....!!

Cheers

Nik

Have you asked Javier from Dakarmotos in BA?
He can send you by bus a Karoo and MT 21 for your friends.

Thanks I got it, sent you one back.

I've just recieved a mail from BMW saying they can't find a tire as the last one was sold. Still it saves me the bother of paying the $677 they wanted for a Enduro 3 which wont fit my bike anyway....

So the question is where do I find a tire around here that fits my bike! May be I should get the spare set sent so I can put them on, but really I like to save them for Patagonia.

Will keep trying.

Keep the TKC in DAKARMOTOS for later.Let Javier send you a Karoo for half the price they are asking in Mendoza.
He can do it via bus.TAC is a good and serious bus company.They do paket service.
Call Javier at his shop.
