All well and good but how about a fix? What were the specific riding
symptoms you saw? Squirrelly? Tracking?


The fix is to get a new tire.
They had another 407 in stock and they are supposed to use those up but I
said no fucking way to that.

Squirrely, especially on corners, on ramps etc.
Tracking got very bad. It would follow every fault in the road and we have
a lot of faults.
Unstable at speed, the fornt end got a bit wild on me at about 100 mph
after a slight rise and depression in the road.

The tire was also just worn out.
It measured 2/32 to 4/32 (either side of a sipe) after 10k miles.
