I have only 1700 miles on my R1200Rt. I have always kept a close eye on tire pressure. About 200 miles ago I started hearing tire noise while in turns. Sounded just like when my old Avons would start cupping around 6kmi. After CLOSE examination yesterday I see that my front Metzeler Z6 is starting to cup. This is a real disappointment. Has anyone had a similar problem, or does anyone have any comments? These are my first set of Metzs and will probably be my last. I'm leaving Monday the 17th for what will probably be a 3000+k trip. I have a feeling the tires (or at least the front one) will be scrap when I get back. The rear tire still looks great.
The fact these tires have absolutely no tread in the center of the tire does make me wonder about rainy conditions, but they have yet to be a problem in that department.
