After 5.500 km the front tire (Dunlop) shows a strong "sawtooth" pattern with about 2 mm difference in height of the outer profile blocks. 
Bad tire, sorry...
When my dealer will exchange the oil at 6.000 km in about 2 weeks he will also throw away these bad rim savers and replace it by Pirelli Sport Demon. The new BT tires in 160 dimension are too broad for me, I like more slim and agile rear tires.
The sawtooth pattern results in a "singing" or "howling" of the front tire when not riding straight. Additonally, there is also a little shimmy recognizable.
The rear tire is still fine, enough rubber for another 6.000 km or so. But the front tire is beyond good and evil. The Dunlop tires seem to be technology from the past century.
