maybe your tires are wearing unevenly, suspension too soft or incorrectly tire pressure.

BTW, forgot my front fork is modded sometime ago. much stiffen up & my rear suspension has been change to YSS 2nd day i got my bike.

dun u feel that our Nouvo's front fork is too soft? maybe its because my rear is too hard now.

wat i did was harden up the front fork. previously was bottoming up the front fork. now cornering is so much stable.

yup i agrees.. now my cornering tend to be a bit wobbly.. so how do u harden the fork?

 

but when travelling at top speed the bike handle bar tends to vibrate more.. must grip on tight.. if not scary man..

 

i experience this too.. reach more than 110km/hr the handlebars will vibrate more

anyone watched last weekend's F1 where Masa was seriously injured at 200km/h by a piece of spring that flew off Bar's vehicle? I was hit a few times in the past on the helmet by small stones while riding. Scratched my helmet and my head moved a bit but otherwise nothing serious as was riding slowly and stones are small. I imagined what would have happened if I were hit on the neck and riding fast. so brothers, do take care not to speed...

Yah, especially those trucks carrying granites. I have a friend who happen to drive behind them. Without notice, a piece of those granite, he said, projected to his windscreen and shatters. Just imagine if that happen to us, the vulnerables. Usually i will keep a look out for them and siam away. :sian:
