Yap, both from last weeks of: December/rear and October/front
That's OK.
Have a safe and pleasant riding!
Just checked mine as I was putting my cover on for the day. One from China, one from Germany. On a Japanese bike.

Sorta like my European Ford assembled in Mexico and sold in the U.S.

on another subject, I was watching Mad Max for the first time in years the other day. I laughed out loud. Beer
At least you guys, got an international bike, BC0011 Tongue

P.S. My CB1100 has only two things made not in Japan: gasoline and the owner/rider Banana
Inhouse, I watched all of the Mad Max movies during my isolation. Gotta love them. I wore my "Jim Goose tribute" helmet to work today!
International bike? Sort of like my British Triumph assembled in Malaysia... that I used Japanese valve shims on a few miles back?
I'm loving the new Pierellis. Only put about 50 miles on them so far but they feel great and turn into a corner much easier than the original Bridgestones.

Question though... I noticed my speedometer bouncing a bit between 40 and 50mph when I was just out riding. I don't remember that happening before I changed the tires. Did I possibly put the rear tire on wrong somehow?
Check the tone ring and make sure you didn’t bend it. Check the sensor for damage too.
I ordered my set yesterday at the Honda dealer in Asheville. Now i need to wait about a week until they come in!

Interesting that you mention that, Popgun. When I called my shop to schedule my tire installation, he specifically asked me if I had ABS. I took that as a signal that they might be looking to avoid damage to the speedo sensor ring. Just to be on the safe side, I removed mine before I took the wheels in.
There is a spec for the sensor/ring gap. Don't have access to it right at the moment though. You might check that.
