Roadmaster 4 front, very uneven tire wear at 6000 miles

[MattSTlouis]

Not sure what is going on with this but it is riding very ruff and the left side of the tire is down to the wear marks. I was planning a 500 mile ride this weekend but might have to rethink that. What do you all think?

I've kept the pressure at 42 the whole time. I just bought this tire in November.

Can you ride no hands?
Bike stays upright and doesn't lean to one side?
Bike goes in straight line with no pulling?

Place 6x15" piece of plate glass that touches both fork tubes and make sure glass contacts fully both sides, no rocking. Repeat with sliders.

Do string test and make sure front & rear tyre edges are aligned.

Dunlop's I've used did the same thing. Not saying you don't have mech prob, but I don't run em for that reason.

Yes, it stays straight with no hands and bearings felt good last tire change.
