F3s tires! JUNK!

[Bfromla]

More to fact every dealer has to use outside tire shops to do the work! Fronts seem to be ez rear hub is funny size & made my dealer have to make deals with 2 different shops. & all i can do is wait. Nice lounge area granted but waiting instead of riding sux!!

Do these tires have a preferred mounting orientation do we know. (Some companies have a yellow dot, or similar
so that the tire tech mounts on the rim in a certain place related to the tire stem....). Saves on the amount of
weights needed if you can turn the tire to balance first...then use the weights.

BRP obviously installs the cheapest tires they can buy on $30,000.00 spyders... Kenda's are substandard 2 ply tires... pure junk.. no other manufacturer uses tires that only last a few thousand miles... oh wait...I forgot... Nascar does...they change tires 4 to 5 times in a 400 mile race...& Goodyear drag slicks are worn out after 4 to 6 times down a 1000 ft track... Kendas do slightly better than that... ...

I added Ride On to get rid of some front wobble, and it seemed to make it worse (even after several hundred miles, and with the weights on and off). I'm in the process of having it cleaned out and rebalanced as I write this.

I got 3177 miles on the bike, I take to the dealer for the common F3 vibration problem, and I'm told the rear tire is down to the wear bars! I hadn't thought to even look at the rear tire closely, it's only a month ago that I bought it! *******g cheap ass tires!

I'm considering adding RideOn to my tires. What did you mean when you said that the first day was rough? Did you start with the weights, and remove them later, or what?
Thanks.

RideOn is applied by taking all of the air out of the tire, putting the goop into the tire via the valve stem, airing up the tire and then going for a 15-30 minute ride. in that time, the spin of the tire will spread the goop to all parts of the tire, but till it spreads evenly, it will be a rough ride. this also happens if the spyder with rideon sits for a while as the goop will settle in the tire, but in that case, within a mile, it's spread back out and smooth as a babys butt.

Been doing a good number of burnouts on your F3?
