First thing to try is swap tires. If it's only on corners and not on straights the tire contact patch is the only thing that's really changing. Might also try increasing rear rebound damping and see if any change. Chances are you're going to have to get to the track to get enough cornering time to diagnose the problem. -- TL1000 SV1000 Message Board

What did you have before the TL dude? I went from a Yamaha R to a TLR and the FIRST thing I noticed was the bitch felt hinged in the middle on big corners... but she didn't really do anything outside of move a little... its the bike dude. Love it, or go buy a shock... or better yet, trade up for an R1. (NT) -- ~ Prozac ~, 15:08:08 07/20/04 Tue

Re: Get rid of stock steering damper- our bike does have deficits as yellow man points out. Scotts or Ohlins make for less head shake. (NT) -- AKTLR, 04:44:04 07/22/04 Thu
