Recall
 
Looks like I'll be getting a notice soon according to this: -

EDIT

More info here http://www.moderntiredealer.com/t_in...t&storyID=7543 and probably doesn't affect UK tyres.

My front falls within the 980 batch No. New front for me then. There is a line which runs round the tread pattern but it’s on the back as well? Don’t know if that’s anything to do with it. Will post piccy later when batteries charged (again).

Re: Recall
 
That constant line round the tyre I believe is an anti-static line and has nothing to do with the delamination fault. I've been out today and can see no problems with my tyre,no pressure loss or uneven wear so I will have it changed when I come back from Scotland. According to information one person has had delamination after riding at 140mph so unless you normally ride at that sort of speed or sustained high speeds it might not be a priority to have it changed till you have had some mileage out of it.
By all means have it changed if you are worried but I will wait for notification from my tyre shop

I'm not a high speed merchant. I'll keep and eye on it until TST contact me for a change. They will probably be struggling for stock for a while.

Also, the dates of the affected batches are between 4505 and 1807 so you need to check that as well.
