At 5000 miles I replaced the rear with a 180 SE. I rode home with no problems. Didn't have to do any mod for the tire to fit. The next time I rode was out in the country opened it up and at 87 mph It started a wobble from the back to the front. Scared the (edit) out of me.. Took it back to the dealer that did the work. They had it for almost a week. After all the bs back an forth. The dealer tried to tell me that when I put the apes on it that was what started all the problem. I told them that the apes had been on for a couple of months an a few thousand mile later is when it started after they installed the tire. After all was said and done with I ended up with a new front tire & a new rear stock tire. All was done under warrenty. After I chewed a little A$$. Next time I need a new rear tire will be going to a new dealer. I'm still in the market for a 180 or 200 for the WG.. I have seen them on WG's. I know they work.
