[QUOTE="RaiderBill, post: 1431732, member: 28577"] Yesterday i took off the front wheel and changed the tire. Only 5k miles on the tire which is the lowest I have ever gotten out of a front. It was a bridegstone battle ax 022. Changed it myself (getting better each time) to a dunlop roadsmart sportmax 2. Took me about 5 times as much time as it should but that is ok as I am getting better with each tire change. I put the tire on and was almost finished when i realised I had not balanced it, so I went and had lunch then came back removed the tire and balanced it. My fjr has had this terrible headshake if you take your hands of the bars under 50mph, even after one tire change by the dealer. After I was done I went for a test ride and took my hands off the bars and she is smooth now, no more shake 😁👍. [/QUOTE]
