What owners report
Short excerpts of NHTSA complaints in the original wording. These are owner statements not verified by NHTSA; personal data removed.
These tires were installed on a daily rider (motorcycle riden daily). Last week, I discovered that the tire had developed a lump (with stress marks) at the edge of the bead. I have since removed the tire, and have had to order a replacement tire. No warranty applicable to my situation.
