I've Got A Feeling

I don't think tire age can be a problem in North America yet, tires are good for 5 years and the cb1100 has only been here for 4. My 2013 had original tires on it when I got it home and they only had 3700 miles on them, I ride fairly hard in the corners and the stocks were fine, not great, but not suffering from old age yet. On his 2014 the tires should be newer tires. If the tires aren't performing properly I would guess there are other factors not just age on a 2014.
