Yup,
can you "ride through it" ie does it vibrate really bad at 70 but at 80 its fine? If so it is probably balancing, if its throught i would have thought its an alignment problem? |

Presumably you are using the wheel/tyre that you had previously been using on your K1 forks?
Even if everything else is the same and working properly, it's not inconceivable that you knocked off a wheel weight during the change-over. Look on the wheel for the tell-tale sticky outline of where a weight used to be stuck. Or just take it to your tyre fitters and let them check the balance, rule out the obvious before taking anything else apart. |

Was it that billowing white jacket you had on causing instability?
