MAW has always had good prices, but their shipping and handling charges can add up. If you are looking for the "L" tire, they are probably one of your only choices, and the price will be higher than the "standard" tire.
If you are buying the "standard" tire and need a pair (two rears, a front and a rear, whatever), look at http://www.swmototires.com. They ship for free when you buy two, so you can actually save $10-$20 on a set. They usually drop-ship from your closest Tucker-Rocky or Parts Unlimited, so shipping time can be very fast. I usually get 1 to 2 day "ground" shipping times in the Dallas/Fort Worth area.
Between my purchases and my close friends, we've probably bought 20 tires from this place over the past two years... never a problem, always a positive experience. ____________

I shipped a set of PP's to B.C. last week my cost w/ins. $45.00 USD. I didn't charge for handling, just shipping. It's the handling that gets ya.

Anytime you ship transborder..you get creamed. Thats why I have a US mailing/billing address...I'm 45 minutes from Plattsburgh and save fortunes every week by doing a pickup there at least once a week. I figure I save at least 20K a year by shipping there...and on small shipments for my business, I ship there when it's not prepaid accrosss the border and I clear the goods myself, instead of paying the brokers $40.00 per entry....takes me 15 minutes...

Sure, I have, but swmototires.com prices have not gone up and shipping is still free on sets...
swmototires.com pair of BT-014's: $231.90 with free shipping, every day, all day, no sales, no coupons, no hassle.
lithiummotorsports.com pair of BT-014's: $230 plus shipping (?)
MAWOnline.com pair of BT-014's: $232.90 incl shipping/handling with current special promotion.
My money's with swmototires.com for consistent prices and fast shipping all the time. They ship same day, MAWOnline usually does not (in my experience).
