Bridgestone Tires for GL1800 & F6B

Tire Wobble
With buying my bike new I want to take as good of care that is possible so when my first set of tires where worn out I put the factory choice back on and was really upset with my dealer for screwing something up because it didn't wobble with the first set of tires, so after reading about these bridgestones I tried a set and still had the problem.After talking to the tire reps at wing ding and others in our chapter I knew that the bearings and fork brace wasnt for me.The problem is in the spinning mas ( the tire and wheel ) On a car they balance both sides of the rim not one wheight in the middle so with that in mind the centra matic seemed like the best shot for me. Im so glad that I didnt waste my hard earned money on yet another snake oil toy for my bike that has no affect on the problem. Now my bike goes straight and true.( Why cannt Honda see this and fix it to make there customers happy?) Fremont,Ohio |

Oversized rear tire
I hvae a 04 with 47000 an when new it was very smooth,then the fist set of tires where dunlaps,wobble an shake,so I tryed these stones and a lot better and have had these ever since.This spring I ordered the centramatic balance system because of all of the great reviewes on shake and tire wear. Our first ride was this past weekend and so far not sure,BUT the 70ser.tire I love the increase in tire size and extra load (we always ride 2up and with a trailer)As soon as we left the drive the back felt like a snow tire with the big knobs (I think the tread is too far apart or too agressive)I hope this will wear in and smooth out! I sure wish that Michelin would make tires for 1800's. |

A little confused !
I buy almost all of my bike toys from wing stuff so when I first seen this product at wing ding my first thought was to get home and read some reviews before I decide on buying this.After getting these in my hands I had high hopes of seeing a improvement in our ride .I"m not ready to give up yet because I just put on a new stone up front an the rear has about 8thou.it,and also my rear has beads in it.I've got a rear shake that has been fixed by removing the rear balance ring,I'm hopeing that when the rear tire gets replaced (without the beads)an the ring reinstalled the shake will be gone.Has anyone had this happen to them? |
