My local ATS are just about as cheap as anywhere, bar ebay where you might pick one up cheap. Their price includes the fitting to a loose wheel so works out about the same as buying them elsewhere and paying extra to get them fitted.

On a 400 you'll have far less tyre choice as other bikes. Get quotes from local tyre shops for fitting and balancing as well as the tyres. To be honest, I've found them to be as cheap as anywhere else.

I've had Pirelli Dragons on which were in the region of £130 a set. The cheapest I've seen them was £120 a set.
