Where to find/buy Custom tyres?

[MidKnight]

I have a Yamaha Midnight Star XVS1300A that needs a new back tyre urgently. It seems impossible to find a shop that has stock or are willing to try to source one for me… 

Looking for 180/65-16 or 170/70-16, brand not important if available fast. 
 

What are your best advise on finding it on the island? Super easy to find overseas but want to avoid the wait and shipping costs…

Ended up having to order from overseas and import myself.

indeed.. most bike shops not willing to bring in uncommon tires.. next time just get your preferred workshop to import the tire size of your preferences and pay them in advance.. (remember to get a receipt stating not collected yet).
