Driving my harley electra glide classic down I-90 in south dakota at around 80 MPH my bike started to sway from front to back. I thought it was the road at first, since it was a road with lines, with suck for bikes. It started getting worse so I slowed and pulled over. Flat rear tire. D402 from dunlop.. I feel glad to be alive. I had the tire replaced. The mechanic did not find anything in the tire, but the left side was all bubbled. He said there was no way of knowing if it caused the flat or was the result of the flat.
