I take it you guys don't have compulsory state inspections every 12 or 6 months (depending on age of bike) like we do....pics like this make it clear why its a good thing.

We love you TD, look after your tyres man!!!

Rear tire? I just replaced the 402 on the rear of mine and the sides were cupped about as bad. Is that a Harley thing? Never seen rears cup like that on jap bikes, only the fronts and it usually means something is not right with suspension.
