roninracing Posted August 18, 2014 Share Posted August 18, 2014 Was engaging in some...er..."spirited riding" this weekend and crested a rise, leaned over on the power and had some head shake. Not a full blown tank slapper but not far from it. Anybody else experience this yet? My front end does feel a little nervous and I was chalking it up to soft/basic suspension. I'm also gonna check the torque on the steering head bearings...I haven't done alot of wheelies...yet...but that may be an issue. I have a couple old, like 80's vintage, dampers laying around the shop I'll try to fit up but really think a GPR/Ohlins is the way to go. Anyone fitted a steering damper yet? What kind? Also, I'm not ANY kind of suspension/setup guru but think the bike could really benefit from dropping the front a couple mm and raising the back. May be another how to in my future.

mericc Posted August 19, 2014 Share Posted August 19, 2014 not yet, but a few of my friends that track a lot says it would benefit from riding my 07, at the moment though...gpr has my bike at prototyping a mount for the damper, ill keep you posted as soon as i get it back and hopefully the wabababababababah will go away lol 2015 Pearl White FZ-07 "such a torky lil guy" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
