Has anyone noticed unusual tire wear in their front and rear tires? I really like the new Dunlops but they appear to be cupping much like a car tire would if it needed an alignment. It is happening to both tires.
When I an in a high speed turn, it almost sounds like I have mud grips on. I can feel a vibration in the handle bars and frame at times. What would cause this?
Yes there is a problem with the D407. They now make the D408 that is the same tire with the tread reversed. The dealers are replacing some. They wouldn't replace mine because I had 12,000+ miles. I now have the D408 and it looks good at 7,000 miles.
There are tons of posts on this subject.

I see ur from Orange park, Go to Adamacs on well's rd. A guy in Parts dept used to be a service guy ( ) in another dealer and helped get free front replacement with 17000 miles. Go to service tell them a vibration and u want it fixed under warranty.... It's best to go to Dealer you purchased Bike... Good Luck.
Thanks for all the replies. I went to the Adamac's on Baymeadows with a copy of Harley's service bulletin SB-1258A. I had just over 12,000 in the tire. The put on a new D408F at no cost!!. Of course that didn't stop me from buying other things wle I was waiting for them to put it on.
