          Well I hope it's a cold storage thing, looks like the RoadRiders are the only decent tire in the right sizes for my GS450.

              Are they going to make you ship the tire back or are they happy with photos ?

                She was suppose to send me a call tag for the last one but it never showed up. Before I took it off I did a royal smookie in the driveway. Clouds of white smoke and the smell of melted rubber . This latest one....I dont know.

                    Had / have three 130/90-17 rears - all cracked.

                    Have one 100/90-19 front - not a crack anywhere.

                      I have 12.90/17 on the rear with no cracks. Been on there several years.

                      Forgot what size 19 on the front,,, no cracks.

                      I'm wanting to put some on my 72 Yamaha XS2 but I'm afraid too. Have you heard of any reports of a 110/90/18 cracking. Thanks.

                        Got the new Road Rider today. Mfg date 2813.



                        Hi Dave,
                        I am going to have Mark Wagoner in our office contact you regarding this tire as I am on the road this week. The UK has modified the sidewall compound in 2013 in this size to make it more flexible so this issue should be resolved now. Took a while to figure out a fix. So sorry about this. Mark will also send you a labor reimbursement form and as a gesture of goodwill I would like to send you an Avon jacket if you let me know size.

                        Best regards,

                        That is actually a really nice jacket !

                          It does look like a nice jacket. Hope it works out for the best for you.

                            Is the size of your tire 130/90-17? I may have a problem with a set I bought last fall.
