question about SV's and the highway - SV650.org

25-11-06, 12:04 PM

I rode my SV650s home this week (about a 240 miles one way) and there were some part of the trip that when the wind hit me a certain way my bike would just wobble or push me arcoss the line I was traveling in. THe question is should I expect this each time I hit the highway?

p.s when the wind was pushing me arcoss the lane, I was doing about 85-90 mph but when I drop to 70-75 it wasn't an issue

ive found this on diff bikes, like socommk23 says it will affect you on bikes no doubt but i find the lighter fully faired bikes are the worst and the bigger nekid bikes are leest affected.
