Mounted and Ready To Ride
Dropped by my local Bike Repair Shop (not a dealer) and had the Battlax mounted. Brought it home and did a trusty "static balance"!
With a warm afternoon I'm on my way out to "scrub in" the new tire. Have the pressure jacked to 40PSI which is the same pressure as the OEM Stone which had no evidence of cupping after 16+K miles. A few folks on the Goldwing DS Riders site have reported getting in excess of 30+K miles of service from the Ax! Time will tell!

Bridgestone Battlax BT45 R&R
Bridgestone Battlax BT45 removed after 52,069 miles.
Looks the same as it did in post #22.
Installed new Bridgestone Battlax BT45, with Ride-On tire sealant. I'll run this one at 41psi.
