Road Grooves
My RK has the stock Dunlop 402's on both ends. The more I ride with the tires, the more I notice that they track in grooved pavement, sometimes to the point where it gets a little unnerving at highway speeds. I'm guessing that I'm not alone in having this happen with the stock tires. When they wear out I'll look at replacing them with something that does not have a center groove in the tread.
Anyone have any experience with the newer Elite 3's in grooved pavement?

I experienced the same thing you are when I had the stock tires on the bike. When I put Metzeler ME880's on the problem was basically gone. The bike handled better. The air pressure in the tires is really important.
+ 1 on the metzlers. if you look at the center of the lops you'll notice that the center has a groove that alternates side to side along the center, that causes the uneasy feeling. At least thats my thought about it.
