    Don’t know how many miles are on them but most tires get louder as they wear or get cupped due to alignment issues.
    2004 marauder black purchased new. Sold 9/16 at 297,000 miles. Still ran strong didn't burn a drop of oil.
    2003 marauder black 28,000 miles all stock. Garage Queen.

    Looks like they are made in USA so I might try these.

    As rears only last a few months on mine, $129 (W sped rated) shipped to my door. The only noise they’ll make is screaming as they’re shredded to bits!!!

    I don't run those tires you have, but you might want to play with the tire pressure.

    I have noticed that adjusting to 30 psi all the way around greatly reduced noise I had.

    Good Luck!

    What kind of noise? Thumping, whining, other. Might help finding an answer if you can give a bit most description.

    Nevermind. Although the details says made in USA, but when you zoom in on the picture, it says made in the Czech Republic.
