Good times on the dragon! But your tires are not blistered lol, they are called rubber boogers. That is normal wear from agressive riding and warming your tires up while they are gripping the pavement. You should see my tires after a good road course track day on the crotch rocket 
but I was impressed that we were the only two cruisers I saw with any heat in the tires!

I was just there in August for my first time... It was fun but the Ultra Limited was a bit out of it's element. Aside from the size and weight, the biggest issue was the gear ratios of the stock Limited left a lot to be desired as it was hard to find the right gear for many of the turns. It was still fun nonetheless.

LOL. I know all too well what real blisters look like I used to ride track days here at the mid-ohio track on my 98hp 104tq 2007 buell lightning... I've owned 600rr's and a 1000rr. I know sport bikes reek havac on good rubber if ridden correctly, which most dont but I was impressed that we were the only two cruisers I saw with any heat in the tires!
