Today had fitted Dunlop Scootsmart front and rear tyres by our own workshop at 3810 miles.
I have never been 100% happy with the factory fitted Schwalbe tyres, the cornering was never precise and the worst issue was the steering had wobble whilst slowing down from about 50-40 mph with no hands. I know do not take your hands off, but I have always tried this once on all bikes to prove its trueness.
The mechanic knew of my technical issue and he stated that the Schwalbe tyres had different tread patterns and would cause my issue, after his tyre fitting and compulsory test ride he stated that there was no wobble at any speed. Driving home tonight it was a totally different ride, no front wheel wobble (with no hands) and it cornered precise and smoothly where previously on the same long sweeping bends I would have to always correct it's line. It's like buying and riding a new bike again
I could not get the exact front Schwalbe equivalent of 120/70-14 61S and the nearest in a manufacturer matched pair was a Dunlop Scootsmart 120/70-14 55S with the same rear of 140/60-13 63S.
