...and, for the record, my front tire has a bad case of cupping. The cupping might be attributable to the fact that I am a new rider (CB1100 is my first motorcycle) and I might be braking while actually entering the turn (i.e., I have heard that I might want to consider having all braking completed prior to entering the turn and actually be throttling up as I begin the turn...easier said than done!). Virtually all my riding is in canyon roads, so that likely adds to the cupping, especially if I'm braking when I shouldn't be. I continue to work on my form, and hope that I'm able to improve and minimize cupping on my new front tire.
