I know there is heaps on tyres but i cant find that anyone has reported tyre feathering. My front tyre is starting to feather and not just on the edges, like a car does when tyres are flat, but right along the tread. This is worrying me, is this a normal trait or have i got something wrong. I am still on my original tyres, with 7000km on them.

I reckon your front has just reached it's use by date, it has "gone off", my OEM front started doing the same thing at about the same km's, time for a new front tyre Mr Jules...

Might have to hit the tyre with the sander, no money for tyre at the moment.

Lol.....you could buy mine cheap, then i could get a Pilot Power 2ct for the front, to match the Pilot Power 2ct i am about to put on the back...

My present front tyre is a almost new Michelin Pilot Road 2ct.....perfect for your needs Mr Jules!
