407 Tire Update
Well, been in contact with the CEO office and I must say I am very disappointed with there reply.....They have no complaints about the rear 407 Dunlop tire cupping.....What BS!....I offered at my expense to ship to rears back so they could be looked at....I had phone silence with no reply.....They did offer to contact the local dealership and they could go over the 09 RKC to see if there is a aliment or bushing problem 
Why didn't I think of that one......So, they haven't callled the dealer yet and I still am waiting....
One thing this dude said was they still owe me another front since I replaced the one that came with the bike and that one was replaced under the service bulltin that came out...Told the dealer that and he said can't do it....Lets see what happen's.
Has anyone switched to another brand of tire yet???????

To all you have stated in the other tire threads about there rear 407 type tires cupping call HD cust Serv and ask for Matt @ 414- 342-4680 and tell him about any rear cupping isssue..Also Dunlop at 800-845-8378 and tell them...Its the only way we can be heard and then they may address the issue...Thanks...Jerry
Also, could you let me know who called by email with a first and last name...This way I can say well you had 10-50 called from customers I know etc
I tried to correct the thread listing from 207 to 407 but it will not change when edited...Any suggestions?

I just noticed mine are cupping a couple days ago. I'm inclined to blame it on the shocks though as the dealership is replacing mine...

It not a shock problem unless they are leaking...Call HD and Dunlop and complain...This is the only way to address this issue....If it is a shock problem is the dearler replacing your tire too?

Dunno yet. Dealer is closed on Monday, but I'm checking tomorrow. Called the MoCo this morning, and they didn't seem terribly inclined to help...
