Bad Michelin Commander 3s?
#11
Same issue here, 1000 miles, vibration around 30mph and again at 60mph. Vibration is in the handlebars at the lower speeds and more so in the floorboards at the higher speeds. Front tire has been balanced 2x, new wheel bearings as well. Not sure what to do, tires are over 90 days old/installed. Have not reached out to Michelin yet. Looking for advice or what you guys did to correct the issue.

So what are they doing to resolve your problem?
I just had 3s installed. The front tire, rolling straight at about 30 to 40mph, has a slight vibration. When you roll/turn left or right it stops.
What did you do to file a claim with Michelin?
Also, where did you buy your tires? Cycle City?

I have chased this same issue over the last couple months. Tried to balance with ride on, replaced wheel bearing, and finally had tires taken off and put back on with a rebalance. Same symptom every time. Vibration in handlebars at 30 and again between 50-60. Lean into a turn and it goes away. Are you all replacing the front tire to fix this?

I have a couple of thousand on my C3 with no vibration. build date of 45 week of 2018, bought from cycle gear in April 2020. Bought a 90/90-21 in Feb.2020 that had 39 week 2018 that was C2. Could not find a C3 in 90/90-21 on line at the time I was looking in January so I went with the C2. Thought for sure since the C3 went on sale in January thought it would be a newer tire than a C2 which it was but not by much. Like previous poster made reference to build date.
