It's no big deal, you can't even feel it over 100 mph A friend of mine who races gave me the thumbs up stating that he's been up to 160 on rims visually worse than mine...

Hey freet is that the bead showing on the side of the tire or just the angle of the pics playing tricks on me?

It might just be the angle and lack of lighting, however; the rear is bent less than the front, but they both hold air...

just as an update. i took the bike out with the new back tire yesterday and it was pretty smooth. didn't really notice it not being balanced. it was balanced while the old tire was on, just not with the new one. kinda debating on if it's worth giving the harley dealer 25-30 bucks just to balance my tire.

p.s. the sportbike dealers around me are a bunch of sissies and won't balance it!
