Friends don't let friends buy a Dunlop 404
This may be common knowledge as it should be but I found out the hard way so I'll share it in case someone does not know.
Back in October I needed a rear tire and had a run coming up in a few days. Went to a local indy and let him talk me into a Dunlop 404. It rode like crap. I noticed it flat spotted and wearing heavy after 3000 miles. Then I noticed the made in Indonesia stamp.
Went to Dunlops site and this tire is rated for a honda 750. Our bikes are way too heavy even without my fat *** on it for these tires. Of course the indy said " It's the exact same as OEM, It just doesn't say Harley on it. " Bullshit. I went back to the indy to bitch and yell but he's long since out of business. Karma I guess. I know have an E3 on the back so all is good again. I love the way they handle.

Sorry this happened to you.
Im SHOCKED... just SHOCKED, that an "indy" would do this. I mean, from everything I read on this forum, Indys are the saviors of us all, unlike those bastard dealers who are only out to rip us off.
Sorry, had to be a smart *** for a second.
Again, sorry you got hosed.
