A. Harper Cycle of Hendersonvile.
I just spoke to the service manager at Harper Cycles in Hendersonville. This is the local Yamaha shop in Hendersonville. Jud is going to order in a few tires to ensure they can help out should anyone need a tire or two to get home. I suggested he have a couple PR2's on hand as that seems to be the most popular set up right now. He will also probably have Conti-Motions on a better more price point side as well.
Harper Cycles is located at 1108 Spartanburg Hwy in Hendersonville, minutes from the hotel. They are open from 9a -5:30p on Friday, and 9:00am to Noon on Saturday. They can be reached at 828-692-1124 - Jud Merrell will do everything he can to get you taken care of.
