The racing crouch thing is a good idea in this blustery weather

Tried a few things out from that today, and they worked a treat. Going into corners sitting a bit further back felt a lot better for me.

Baph, tried the pussy cat in / tiger out approach - bloody brilliant tip! Thanks mate, feeling better.

No problem mate Another good tip I've found is when riding in high wind, push your ar*e as far back in the seat as you can, feels strange at first, but at least on the S, it puts the centre of gravity lower, and takes less effort on the steering to lean the bike over into the wind This is probably the same thing that you found going into corners sitting back a little.

Anyway, I'll stop the mini-derail now apologies
