I bought my NT700V about 2 years ago. It had 17000 kms on the odometer when I bought it. The tires had plenty of tread left but they were badly cupped. I put 5000 additional noisy kms on the Bridgestones before changing them this spring to a set of Nankings. I have put 5000km on the new tires so far and the rear is already showing signs of cupping. I have had many motorcycles with many different brands of tires and have yet to see a bike cup tires like this one. I run my tires on the hard side, 35 psi front, 40 psi rear I'm 225lbs and we often ride 2 up and have the top box option. It has been extremely hot here with temps well into the 90's. I would think that decreasing the tire pressure would cause more severe cupping. Any suggestions/comments would be appreciated.
Thanks, Tim
