2008 Yamaha FJR1300

BRAND NEW BRIDGESTONE FRONT MOTORCYCLE TIRE SIZE 120/70 ZR 17. BRAND BATTLAX BT-021. MOTORCYCLE BOUGHT NEW FROM DEALER WITH STANDARD ISSUED TIRES IN AUGUST 2010. FRONT TIRE WORN SO BADLY AT 2900 MILES HAD TO REPLACE IT. REPLACED BY DEALER WITH SAME EXACT NEW BRIDGESTONE TIRE. THAT TIRE HAS 4300 MILES ON IT AND IS WORN SO BAD I CANNOT DRIVE IT ANYMORE. CENTER TIP OF THE TIRE IS FINE, THE REST OF THE TIRE IS BALD AND LOOKS LIKE A SANDER WAS TAKEN TO IT. FEELS LIKE RIDING ON A TIGHTROPE. DEALER INSPECTED FRONT END ALIGNMENT AND FOUND NO ISSUES. ROADS I TRAVEL ARE MOSTLY FLAT AND VERY FEW CORNERS. I RIDE WITHIN POSTED SPEED LIMITS. I CONTACTED BRIDGESTONE HEADQUARTERS IN NASHVILLE TN IN FEB 2012. SPOKE TO A MAN A FEW TIMES AND HE CHECKED INTO THE PROBLEM. I TOLD HIM I WOULD SEND THE TIRES TO HIM FOR PERSONAL PROFESSIONAL INSPECTION. HE DECLINED TO LOOK AT THEM. HE GOT BACK TO ME A FEW DAYS LATER AND SAID, "SPORT TOURING BIKES GO THROUGH A LOT OF TIRES." I TOLD HIM THE TIRES ARE DANGEROUS AND MY LIFE IS AT RISK TO SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH DUE TO THIS PRODUCT. AGAIN, NO HELP FROM THIS COMPANY REPRESENTATIVE. I FEEL THAT THE BRIDGESTONE TIRE COMPANY HAS A DANGEROUS PRODUCT THAT SHOULD BE RECALLED. THE COMPLAINT IS WIDESPREAD ON THE FORUMS. A FRONT MOTORCYCLE TIRE WHEN USED PROPERLY SHOULD LAST MORE THAN A FEW THOUSAND MILES. I WOULD LIKE TO FORMALLY REGISTER A COMPLAINT AGAINST BRIDGESTONE TIRE. I DEEM THIS PARTICULAR MODEL OF TIRE TO BE BOTH DANGEROUS AND COSTLY TO THE CONSUMERS WHO PURCHASE THIS PRODUCT. IF ONE LIFE OR ACCIDENT CAN BE PREVENTED BY A RECALL ON THIS MOTORCYCLE TIRE, IT WILL BE WORTH MY EFFORTS TO STAND UP AGAINST THIS INFERIOR PRODUCT. THANK YOU. *TR
