If you normally get your garage to fit tyres for you.......does it piss them off when you buy online and ask them to fit them......is it bike etiquate i suppose is what im asking...its important to me to have a good relationship with them but can they blame you if you find a good deal???
Simple solution;
Use your nice friendly, good mechanic for working on your bike - piss off another garage by getting them to swap your tyres

The thing is I have a local tyre shop where I can just roll / limp up and will sort me out there and then whilst the local dealer may want to keep the bike. I would not want to piss the tyre place off or see them go under.
National Tyres used to do just a fit on loose wheel for bikes, dont know if they still do
I don't do rain or threat there of. dry rider only with no shame.
