I also have the 408f on my 09 SG. Got it last week so it's too early to see if any probs. Re: the tire bulletin that JerryF posted on page 5 of this thread...any idea whose bulletin it is?? Doesn't have any Harley indicators on it, and my dealer (who I trust-friends with the GM and my boss owns the store) told me he can't find any record of such bulletin--gonna see what he can do for me though. (FYI, boss owns an 09 RG SE with the 407f)

On my last bike I used to install Avon Venom tires. Those had "reverse thread" technology wich they claim as better wet traction and that technology came from Moto GP. I'm still looking for the info but I never had any problem with them even in heavy rain. Now, I have the Dunlop D407 on my EGC and while it shows cupping, I have almost 12000 miles on it. Going to have to change it soon. If I can find the info on "reverse thread" design again I'll post it here.
