I RUN 42PSI IN THE TIRE, RIDE TWO UP MOST OF THE TIME (RIDER=230LBS, PASSENGER=140LBS, MINIMAL GEAR IN THE BAGS).

NOTICED SLIGHT "BUMPING" FROM FRONT TIRE AT SLOW SPEED (APPROX. 35MPH), CHECKED TIRE AND FOUND A BUBBLE APPROX. THE SIZE OF HALF A TENNIS BALL IN THE CENTER OF TREAD. AFTER TIRE WAS REMOVED, THERE WAS A 4 INCH SPLIT WITH CORDS/BELTS EXPOSED. 3.

  ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING

  WHEN APPLYING GREATER THAN 50% THROTTLE THE ENGINE CUTS TO 1/2 POWER NEAR 6000 RPM. IT ALSO LOSES THE IDLE AFTER 15-30 SECONDS CAUSING THE ENGINE TO DIE. THIS IS VERY CONSISTENT AND HAPPENS DAILY ONCE THE ENGINE HAS REACHED OPERATING TEMPERATURE. *TR
