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.

Went by the Honda shop and ordered the BT-45...they will put it on when they to the re-call work on Tue ...
Then stopped at Cycle Gear to buy another 8 oz bottle of Ride-on ...

Picked up my bike today and scrubbed in the tire before the rain sets in. NO B.S. from dealer with installing the AX on the front. I have a great dealer and service manager as well !!! Went for a quick spin to feel the tire. There is no need to balance the tire it is perfect as is. I will add Ride-On and set psi to 41. Will see. The stock tire I got 20K miles, the next tire a Stone 509 I think, I got 10K... will see what this one does !

Steve! Keeps us updated on you experience! The Ax, depending on road surfaces, will induce a slight handle bar vibration until the center grove edges soften/round over (first 3 hundred miles or so)! At least it did with mine! Looking forward to any and all detail you provide.

Bob, it was glass smooth ! No nothing... I added the Ride-on for the sealing affect not to balance. I will post again after I have some miles on the tire. I am going to be fairly busy for the next month so the miles may take a while!
I do plan on being at the next RTE, someone wanted to check out my center stand....see you there !

Probably a mute point as I've already ordered it, however has anyone had any TPS issues with the Ride-On sealant? It specifically says not recommended for the wings...
