Default Coker Super Eagle Replica tire.

A buddy is restoring his dad's 68 electra-glide. I noticed he had a bunch of wheel weight on it, I told him it looked like too much weight. This was on a new wheel from J&P. He said that the guy that balanced it said he'd never put that much on one before, but that it is what it is. He'd said he moved the tire to 4 different positions and it was as good as it gets.
I've used this same tire guy myself for years and never had a problem with his mounting and balancing.

Anyone know about the contruction of these tires causing this kind of problem?

All modern motorcycle tires (including coker) have a E3 symbol on them that MUST be positioned over the stem (tube or tubeless). If that is done and the tire is still WAY off, call Coker and get a replacement.
