I just put new tires on my bike and they are amazing. I think its a combination of a lot of things. The old tires started to develop a flat spot. The old tires had a different profile from the start. The WRONG tire was on the front.

I bought a 120/70-17 to get installed and the motorcycle shop called me telling me it was too tall. Apparently the PO put a 60 or 65 on the front. I wonder if this explains why whenever i tried to lean in more the front tire would start to push.

The dunlop sportmax Q2 is an awesome tire. It leans in so fast and low speed(<30-35) handling is effortless. Its a little bit more harsh of a ride over the qualifier but ill take it.
