If you are still getting a buzzing with the new tire have them look at the front wheel bearings.   Do ask me how I know.   They are not as robust as they should be.

Changed mine this week. $281.00 installed at El Cajon Harley with free mount and balance. Rides so much better.

I can't believe how well the stock dunlop tires hold up.  I have
24 k on the front,,,,  still pretty decent.    And I got 14 on the first rear and the 2nd looks great with 10k on it.   They handle well for me and I am very happy with them.     Just sayin  :)

I haven't reached 15k on any of the previous 4 front tires on my 2011 CVO Street Glide.  Every tire has been replaced by HD before reaching the wear limit because of sidewall cracking just off the rim.  This was also with the new tire that superseded the original one that HD has since discontinued.  Some were replaced at the  6-8k range.  The highest one was 12k.

Yep I'm on my 4th free front tire. All replaced for sidewall cracking. I'm not complaining I have been taken care of.

Is there any indication as to what is causing them to crack?
