TinCup--what pressure do you run in your front tire? I'm on my second 90/90-21 Night Dragon front, and this one is showing some cupping in the tread, first one did the same thing. I've been running it around 34psi.
Did you need to use the tank hose that came with the kit? I'd like to put one of these kits on my bike but I checked the lift with my stock hose (that I's like to keep) and I could only get a little over an inch without trying to change the angle of the metal fitting on the tank.

The Night Dragons seem to like a bit more air pressure, perhaps it has to do with their more rounded profile. On the last set of ND's I experimented with different pressures and found at 34 PSI in the front the cornering and handling took more effort. I settled on 38 PSI front and 42 PSI for the rear; no cupping/scalloping of the front tire and the bike would turn in to corners effortlessly.
