Seems to be the norm.  I got 12k from the rear tire before the noise and handling in the corners drove me nuts.

If we weren't leaving on a trip next week I probably would of held off for another 1,000 miles. Never noticed any noise from the tire, but you sure notice a difference in handling when you put the new tire on.  ;D Here in Indiana there isn't allot of twisty roads.

Actually I wanted to provide a little "fill in" lighting to the area directly in front of the bike - under the LED's if that makes sense, and off to the edge of the roadway since the LED's don't "spill" light off to the sides as much as the Halogens.  I still need to finalize the aiming of them, but they are mounted and working  :2vrolijk_21:

 I like the new lights.

Changed the fluid in all 3 holes. Mobil 1 20W50 in the engine, Mobil 1 Racing 4t 10W40 in the primary, and Bel Ray transmission fluid in the tranny.

They're the 3" Kuryakyn lights that mount to the fender mounting bolts.

I'm blaming Jimmy (2K) for planting the idea:

That Jimmy is an evil, evil Harley man.
 ;D

Mr. phato, my Blue Bike Brother I think a final addition of the Custom Dynamics LED Ringz would finish off the front end of that beautiful bike.
What you think?

From my limited experience with BMW riders......you may get more bugs up your nose as it will be up in the air.

Will do.  I did an extended test ride on one, and was blown away by just about everything about it.

Nice looking bike. A friend of mine just came back from a trip out west on his. He said the bike performed well but had to stop and get new tires to make it home. He only got 3000 miles out of the old ones. That was very disappointing to him. Understandably so.

I've read up on them. Suspension and engine power are impressive. The biggest problem I have is the looks. Just can't hold a candle to my CVO. Don't care for the rider position as well. But probably the most important issue is my wife don't like them so no use in going any further lol.
