I've got nothing to complain about as far as the SV's vibrations are concerned ;-) :smt081


And that bolt coming off in the Yorkie Dales (yes they're ours :smt033), that was worrying! I'm sure I felt a wobble too, next thing I know we've stopped and poor James was trying to turn round in this tiny road to go fetch it :rolleyes:

You probably did if chris reached for the peg/it disappeared under him. On the way to the carlsberg run I leant in for a roundabout and my outer foot slipped off the peg, almost binned it - must have looked hilarious though. :cheers:

Could be worse, plowsie did the same and ran his foot over.

The bolts on my motech rack keep loosening off after every 1k or so miles...I really must get over to YC's for my custom pillion grab rail ;).

Or use some loctite.

hmm possibly linked to the abnormal chicken strips on the front? if the fork heights are a mil out could this do it or is it likely to be at the rear end?
The bike seems to handle alright otherwise...just when I go no handed lol.
Always best to have your forks bang on anyway. If you sort that it might fix the going to the left problem? Might help the bike handling too you never know?

Well tbh they look the same level but as I'm only going by eye I'm assuming I could be wrong and they could be out by a fraction. just wondered if this small amount would do it? WIll double check them tonight...see if I can find an engineers ruler make sure it's bang on.
