Heavy front end?
i have not been riding my bike much recently but on the last 2 or 3 short trips i have made i have noticed the front end feels heavy at slow speed, by this i mean hard to turn at first then suddenly seems to dip into the corners, it also feels like it pulls to the side a little when braking but again only at slow speed.
I have just been to blow the tyres up and the pressures were 27 in front and 26 in the rear, i know this is too low so i have put them up to 33 front 36 rear. My question though is were the tyre pressures likely to have been the cause of the poor handling or should i also be checking elsewhere? :confused: |
Re: Heavy front end
low tyre pressure will make it feel heavy. now you have the correct pressure go out and try again.

Re: Heavy front end
almost definitely, think about it, the tyre is deflated and so spreads out and effectively becomes wider so harder to turn.

Re: Heavy front end
+2 was down to the low pressure
