Example complaints

Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.

“The rear tire developed a bulge in the center of the tread while riding. The motorcycle became barely rideable. At a friend's shop we removed and inspected the tire. It appeared that the tread was separating from the casing. I have since seen about 2 dozen complaints on various internet message boards describing the very same problem. I have a file of these descriptions if you are interested.( DOT number: call me tire size: 180/70r 16 )”
