Re: fish tailing like mad
If you're chattering up the back it will try to step out.. maybe it's new tyre time..

Re: fish tailing like mad
Happened suddenly?Either somethings broke or tyre pressures.If the tyres are OK then you need to get it up on a stand and check the headstock bearings,the swingarm bearings and the wheel bearings.Also check everything for tightness-----wheel spindles chain adjusters,and have a look at the rear shock linkages.

Re: fish tailing like mad
I dont want to risk the repeating myself, but have you checked the pressures ?

Re: fish tailing like mad
Are you changing down whilst braking and possibly spinning the rear up slightly?

If you knock it down a few gears whilst on the front brake, if the revs happen to bounce high enough it may spin the wheel up a bit which can feel weird. |
