Just took a battery charging ride. Put her on the center stand and put a mark across the back tire with a wet finger and began inspecting tread by tread. About half way through my attention was drawn to the left side of the rear tire. It was cupped...not on every segment but abt every other. Some segments showed significant wear short of the chicken strips. All on the left side of the tire. Front is the same, but I expected that. WTF?
Looks like I've been riding into a 100mph leftTOright crosswind for 6000+- miles. Does the weight in the system cases affect tire wear? I always ride with them on and the left one is (i think) is probably 10lbs heavier than the other.
Any wisdom/experience with this issued welcome...
