First time I have seen a tire do this. At first I thought I had run over something but upon further examination you can see that the tire is separating and the area on each side looks different from the rest of the tire. In the one photo you can see a rough area in the rubber itself. Really strange. 2020 RoadGlide
Not accusing but is there a chance that tire was run at speed for a while when it was low on pressure? Other than that, all I can think it was a fault in manufacture.
Suggest you also show the dealer... tires are usually covered on a new machine.
On a 2020..... Take it to the dealer and demand a replacement. You don't see too many dunlops like that. They should replace it without too much of a hassle.
