Re:HANDLING 2 Years, 3 Months ago  
Guys,thanks for all the info 7 your advice.

My bike a 2 brand new dunlops on it and i did chk the pressure and it was right on factory spec so i figured it good to go.

It also only has 5k mles on it and font fork.\/bearing/wheel etc seem tight.

I did take a quick look at the rear to front aligmentand it seems ok.

but the bike is squirly at times even on a straight raod at speed cruise speed,just is worse when its windy but lowering th windscreen to lower position helped that a bit.

but i sure hope some the the instability isnt due to that new dunop tire that was just installed?

But the bike had the same unstable feeling up front withe the worn out tire tires too,it just got a little better with the new dunlops but not near as much of an improvement as i was hoping for with the new tires.

Couple more questions after reading reading all your info,where can i get the what looks to be plexygalss lowers that are cut to not interfear with crash bars?

And how does that white pearl colored R* handle with the upper fairing that also provides some hand coverage too and whats approx cost?

Thats what i may of changing too in the future.

Thanks...scott
