| Description of the problem | Purchased a michelin commander 3 front tires for my 2016 harley davidson road glide special. Riding home after the installation there was a buzz/vibration in the handlebars from 30 mph to 40. I called michelin and they said to have the balance checked and the wheel bearings checked. Both were fine. I put 100 miles on the tire and the problem continued. I called michelin back and agreed to replace the tire. Tire was on backorder for approx 30 days. Once it arrived it was installed. Same problems and the same points before. I called michelin again and all they could say is that they would replace it again and let their rep know of the problem. |
