Side-to-side play in throttle grip
#11

I'm wondering why it's more obvious to me on this bike....I haven't checked this, but my theory right now is that the front tire might be over-inflated--it seemed to bounce a lot over small pavement imperfections on the ride home, and that's when I was noticing my hand (and the grip) moving back and forth.

Anyway, we'll see. In any case, I'm sure I'll get used to it.

Good info on the wiring connections...I'll put that on my to-check list. Thanks!

Check the preload setting on the front forks. If it's set too stiff, you'll feel the bumps a lot more.
