Hi, has anyone else had a problem with their font tyre wearing on one side?

Its common with all motorcycle tires. Let me guess, it's the left side? Think about it, whenever you turn left you're always going a further distance than when you turn right. This is the opposite for left side drive countries of course.

There's also a load of other possibilities here.
Rider feels more comfortable turning left (or right), leans more or takes the turn faster maybe?
The route he takes has more turns in one direction than the other?
Highways (and most roads) are raked from center to the curb, so you'll have a slight bit more wear on the side of your tire closest to the centerline.
There's some other things, like the one armed rider, but we don't need to get into the crazies.
