They were in the treaded part about in the middle of the left side.

		     Martin,
		     
		     I was one of the people having a similar handling
problems as 
		     yourself. Martin Wilson was the other person but since
he's changed 
		     his Sprint for a B12 he's probably not too worried any
more.
		     
		     After spending a weekend with all the bodywork off the
bike and going 
		     over every chassis nut and bolt with a torque wrench
and the manual I 
		     was tearing my hair out. I did check the tyre for signs
of cupping but 
		     must admit I didn't spin it and look for deformations.
I'll check the 
		     tyres profile carefully over the weekend. 
		     
		     Were the deformities in the sidewalls or the threaded
part of the 
		     tyre? 
		     
		     Thanks for the heads up. That could have lead to a very
messy problem.

		     The tire was removed and sure enough there was some
form of separation 
		     of the plys internal to the tire. When I was taking a
look at the 
		     inside of the tire there were two very deep tears in
the internal 
		     rubber.
