A couple good burn outs will take care of that problem

So, is that flat spot an anomaly or is it normal and attributable to the manufacturing process - such as from assembly line mold release? Or, perhaps, is it is due to being stored in a warehouse improperly (too long without rotation)?

attributable to the manufacturing process. the layers don't always strech the same. sometimes after they are driven some miles thet run true. i had a 1ton tire that the axle froze up and the tire slid for a long distance it put a nice flat on a new tire at low speed it bounced and made my brakes rattle. being a new tire i decided to put a 1 ounce weight oppsite the flat spot and it worked great.


ps phil your avatar does not work on dial up i guess it is to much stress.

Sounds like you're good to go, Greg! As for the shocks, the best thing to do with the OEM's is to replace 'em. that said, it's easier to help spend OPM than to spend it on oneself. Someone will be along promptly to advise on the best setting for your particular circumstances, but no matter how you set 'em, they are not very compliant going over expansion joints and other regular road features at speed.

Hey Phil..ya the spending "Gregs money" is easier when people darkside just to save money. The shocks work great Phil...I ran over a flattened doe doing 80 mph last week and the wheel stayed on so its probably good to go.

I will let you know on Tuesday when I do a 350 mile ride.

Cheers!

Still alive...Rode 424 miles yesterday with no noticing any wobble and/or vibration and I took her up to 125 on a deserted stretch of roads in upstate SC...Then again if I crashed and was killed instantly I would not have known and this may be an alternate dimension.
