Padden is my hero
Bought my ST a little over 3 weeks ago with just under 5K miles. It still had the OEM Dunlops on it, but they were cupped f&r pretty bad.
I'm assuming the PO ran the pressures low because the rear was real bad.
So bad that I had road noise like a wheel bearing was bad. Even with ear plugs in I could hear it.
Knowing I had a trip to Nova Scotia planned for this Thursday I decided to get a set of BT020's installed because I knew the noise would drive me nuts for that distance.
Had a friend mount and balance them, hoping that was where the noise was coming from.
Luckily that was why I had so much noise and now it's nice and quiet. Handles much better with new skins also.
