Dawg,

Thanks so much for the update and letter about the front tire on the 09 touring models. I had called the MOCO and received a claim number and went to my local dealer and they said it was normal with 7000 miles again went at 8700 miles and complained and again they said there were no issues or problems. Finally went to a different dealer at 12000 miles and just put both a front and back tire on as the bike rode horrible and both tires were extremely cupped but had a lot of thread left. So I paid for tire replacement after calling four dealers and no one would do anything they just said that was too many miles. The tires had a ton of thread let they were just cupped so bad it rode like a jeep with mudders. Now I will try to have to get a claim paid after the fact so hopefully there will be a record at the MOCO of my call becuase I do not remember my claim number. Thanks again and hope I can get a credit!

As typical, I am about 2 months too late. Since my dealer was zero help, I ended up buying a replacement from Zanotti's and mounting it myself. Does not look like I will be able to get anything back.

Had 19,000 miles on my front tire and believe it or not, MOCO did replace it for me.
