Has anyone recieved a letter from H-D about front tire wear on early 09 touring?
Thanks

 

No letter but they will change it to a new 408 if you complain about drive-ability (ie. tar snake slides, vibrations), cupping, excessive noise. The shop asked me about my problems. I told them and they replaced my tire.

 

Yeah Nomad, Theres plenty of post on here about that issue. The way I took care of mine since the Dealer I bought the bike from gave me the runaround, I called a Dealer and asked for the number of Customer service. Then called and told them I had a front tire issue on my 09 EGC. It was making a noise and vibrating and I saw cupping. I had over 11K miles on it at the time. She gave me a number to take to my Dealer. I didn't go to my Dealer. I took it to another and he said yep we got a problem here and changed the tire out free under warranty. Have them check your back tire too. My back tire was changed out under warranty as well. Good luck!

 

I got my letter in December. My dealer just told me to make an appointment and change out the 407 to a 408. No hassles at all. They're also gonna do the tank bolt fix also.
