R3T Pulls and Uneven Front Tread Wear



I'll try this when I change out the front tire this week.
 
That may have had much to do with the quality of the tire chosen or with how it was mounted, balanced or maintained, John, although I'm not familiar with anyone other than myself that's running a quality, radial Bridgy up front... the Exedra Max in a 130 size.

I'm running a Bridgestone Exedra Max 150/80/16 on the front of my R3T. 14000 miles on it now and it's down to the wear bars. Great tire!
 
Similar but different problem. My 2013 will go for miles, no hands, sitting perfectly upright, no leaning one way or the other. HOWEVER, my original Metzler front tire, at 10,000 miles, is slick on the left side. No crash bars, etc. etc. Was dropped once on the right side, while sitting still, and once on the left side, while a friend was trying to turn her around in his paved driveway. Something ain't right. I'll try to post a pic later, still in robe and sippin coffee here.
