Handling a bit hesitant
Posted: Thu Nov 20, 2008 7:54 am
Hi,
Basically, when I take the bike into a bend, it sort of hesitates whether or not to lean. I'm loosing my confidence leaning now because it just feels like the back end is gonna slide out. I've checked the front forks for leaks... nothing, same with the rear. Forks are both at the same settings. Tyre presures fine, bike recently had new bearings front and rear. I'm runnign out of ideas. I know the rear tyre is starting to sqaure off a bit.
Another weird thing i'm getting is a single knock coming from the headstock every time I hit the front brake. would that be the headstock bearings shagged / loose?
Regards
Rich
