Had a set of bridgestone bt021's put on last week. the first set of bt020's went 8900 miles untill a cupping problem forced a replacement (damn shame cause i could have gone 10,000 on them). Put about 200 miles on the bike before testing the new skins at high speed. Bike is rock solid with neutral steering all the way to about 90mph. at 90, i feel like i jump off a race course and landed on a motocross track. whole bike starts shaking and get exponetially worse as the speed increases from there. i didnt feel safe crackin triple digits with the thing shakin bad enough to break up kidney stones. i thought the mirrors were going to come off at one point.
Question:
1. anyone had this problem with there bto21's
2. i get the feeling this is not a balancing problem (or i would have seen it at slower speeds).....correct????
3. if its a bad tire, whats the recommended recourse i need to take?.
The dealer who i bought the tires from (and had them installed) is willing to pull the tires and recheck the balance, but dosent want to do much beyond that. If the balanceing checks out, whats your suggested course of action to get a new set of tires and have them reinstalled (without any additional charge)?
Thanx,
GreyGoose
