What owners wrote
Front tire on this motorcycle is severely cupped. I have contacted the manufacturer and received nothing but double talk. This tire is the origial equipment on a near-$20k motorcycle. To date there are no other manufacturers of this specific tire size for this motorcycle. At speeds below 30 MPH the front end shakes/wobbles creating what I feel is an unsafe condition. Both honda and bridgestone/firestone are aware of the problem. Nearly every owner of this new motorcycle has been affected by this problem.
There is a noticeable wobble in the front end of my 2001 honda gl1800 at approximately 45 MPH. It wasn't there with the first tire I had, dunlop. It has become progressively worse as the front tire ages. This is submitted in support of odi#10135765.
