Just curious if anyone else has experienced any low speed shimmy on their CB? I only have about 100 miles in so far (damn rain) and noticed it today while riding. It's not too bad, but I don't get any on the XR 650L at all. I check the tire pressure (Dead on at 36 and 42 psi) and snugged all of the front end bolts. I didn't hit the steering head though.
I did noticed that the front tire does not have any wheel weights on it though. Just wondering if this is a characteristic of the bike before I take her back to the dealer for a check.
Thanks
