I keep looking but I never see any more than just the set not 2 rear and 1 front. Did you get this from the same place?

Yessir. You just order the front and rear combo and then add on another rear. At least that is what I did.

If you order from these guys what do you about mounting and balance? They have a good price on power pures compared to my last source of tires.

If you're set on ordering tires from an online vendor, then you can always have any local shop mount and balance them for you. Any motorcycle shop should be able to do that without any problems. I've gone that route before, and it was no sweat.

Then again, lately I've just taken the bike to Cycle Werkz and purchased the tires through them. Their prices are competitive, and their work is solid. Just be sure to call ahead and check to see whether they have the time to do it within your time frame. Back in March/April they were booked out completely for another 4+ weeks.

It's like $20 or something for cycle werkz to mount and balance the tire if you take just the wheel into them. They are more likely to squeeze you in if its just the wheel and they dont have to take it off the bike. Cycle Gear will also mount and balance tires, and you have to have just the wheel for them to do it.
