I got my rear tire from "Two Brothers" in lawrenceville. They have killer prices and only charge $30 to put on the rear tire. They are located off of Maddox street.

Great first bike. You don't want to fall into the trap that often your friends lay who say "You'll be alright on an R1" and you fall in becuase you think you'll look cooler on an R1. Well good news for you. The Bandit will eat an R1 alive in the Mountain Twisties. Great handling bikes.
