Default Dunlop :(

Soes what you guys think of Dunlop tires. On my bobber I have some wobble, soes I've been keeping an eye boggler on the front tire. Looks like it is wearing poorly with 4000 miles on it. Any body else notice anything?

check your spokes. It ain't the tire. 4k, you're kidding. check your air pressure.

Yep, already checked the spokes for tension and rim runout. Air pressure is a gimme. Fork bearings, springs and rebound just dandy. Rebalanced the wheel, soes I think the tire sucks. I'm not smashing Dunlop, had real good service in the past. Just noticed mine and a couple others with the tires on the newer scooters to wear peculiar.
