back tyre shaky n skips on corners

[badboyz02]

Hi guys. I need a advise on my bike. when i go cornering at high speed, my back become shaky.. and at times my tyre skips alot to the outer. Is there any way to reslove this problem on my k8?

I'll keep it as layman as possible

 

1. Congratulations, you've cleared your chicken strips

2. Tyre not suitable for your track-riding style. Heaven-forbid using touring tyres for rough track cornering!

3. (Possibility) Leaking forks

4. (If everything looks alright) Incorrect suspension settings. See below

 

If your compression damping is too hard, your suspension can't react quickly enough to compress the bumps on the track, and your bike will skip and chatter as a result.

But how do i knw if the damping is too soft? Wat feel would you get? Sorry dun mind if you could explain

[barrabran]

i tink u need to be more specific when describing your problem leh. does this happen on the road or on the track?

does it affect if ur body weight is too light for the bike?

in short, yes.

But then again, the latest sportbikes all offer many ways in which you can tweak the suspension to suit your weight. You know, like a horse but with adjustable hooves and knee bones.

 

OP should get professional advice in setting rider sag first, then tweak the suspension to make the bike perform better on the track/road that you frequently visit.

 

If the rider really out-of-spec (this is rare), then need to buy specialized suspension. But then again, this kinda techie stuff is very bike junkie, or track-racer oriented liao.

 

Cheers.

Wheel bearings.

 

What is the condition?
