Aerodynamics (as well as that amazing e-cvt) is class leading, w/ or w/o top case. It's got all that tupperware on it, which cuts through the air w/ hardly any turbulence.
Do you have spoke wheels? If so, you may want to just double check that the rim is concentric, even though yours' still brand new. The spokes can/do stretch after break in, so they need to be tweaked every now and then to keep them true, even if you never hit a pothole.
Easy to do: Raise wheel off ground, use dial micrometer, contact pointer against inside surface of rim, rotate, and see how much the dial moves.
Dial indicator, dial micrometer...
indeed, if i had place and cash immediately available I would still keep that scooter
Do I have spokes??
Do members even watch the signatures of other members??????
The link doesnt work btw.
lol, it seems members also dont read the whole thread huh

So there is nothing wrong with torque settings in the forks or tripple tree.
Twisted chassis, hmm I doubt the issue is that extreme Pterodactyl.
I should actually let somebody ride my CB that has also a CB and tell me that its normal what I perceive as a wobbling handle bar.
I'll ask asap 2 fellow countrymen what their experience is with high speed riding.
Head bearing torque I have not checked yet...I dont even know the torque setting, so if somebody could tell me that I can check that out, meanwhile I can do a search on the board.
I suspect the crosswinds, or me being extremely nitpicking.
But if you all say no wobble at all, thats clear and leaves no room for interpretation....
Than again, have those who say that ever ridden at those speeds with a lot of crosswinds??
But lol trading in, you guys really go for a worst case scenario huh

This wobble would stop when I cleared the turbulent air behind the trucks. This was with my Puig screen installed. Had not felt this wobble when in similar situations sans screen.
hm hm, that shines another perspective with more details concernikng my small issue.
With or without screen, does make a difference and you talk about turbulence as well, similar to my windy conditions.

Keep that grip loose and I'll guarantee those wobbles go away...
lol, what do you mean exactly with "keep that grip loose" ?
at high speed?
shouldnt you be holding your grips firmer than ever as you increase speed
aha, I don't seem to be the only one here

I realize now that there are 2 kinda big weights sitting on the front around each spoke, maybe its an issue of tire balance as well.
Are spoked wheels more sensitive to changes in balance, (since they need adjustment from time to time)?
Meaning I asked that question too
My mechanic will know what to do when I come in
Riko, this is a bit harsh. Some members read the forum on mobile device using software like Tapatalk which doesn't display forum signatures.
