AND......even if we were talking about a really cheap knock-off or a 30 year old rat bike, there is NO justification for riding on sub-standard tires, unless you have a death wish. :skull:

The point is that your riding a cheap (inexpensive) motorcycle and your concerned about the tires being bad because the cost is low. The most I ever paid for a tire for one of our GZ250s is around $56 and the cheapest ones were better tires than the expensive Metzeler tires they came with.
The the last pair of tires I bought for a GZ250 cost $56.45 and $51.78 or $108.23 total.
There could be any number of reasons why kmkindred can get the tires for $116 that don't have anything to do with the quality of the tires. Perhaps the mounting and balancing are free or the tires are overstocks that they are clearing out.
Who is allowed to sell sub-standard tires in the US?
BTW: According to the Merriam-Webster Thesaurus cheap and inexpensive are synonyms.
