  1. I am out tomorrow with the better half (whale)on the bike for the 1st time.. be interesting to see how she handles (bike not wife)..Sh***T!!!!!
     
    UPDATE.
                     Been out, i can honestly say it was difficult, hardened up the front and back end, but the problem was i was squashed up against tank, this bike is not good at carrying a Whale.
     
    Took her back home after about 1 hr 30 min to uncomfortable for me, she said the bike was great, and very comfy, lol not for me!!
    she's on a diet now though.
     
  2. I have found the steering wobbling, with and without the hard bags. It is less pronounced without the bags mounted. My riding conditions were a B road with a reasonable surface and high speed (110mph) bends. There were very gusty winds, and I was riding it very hard with the traction control cutting in on occasions. I checked tyre pressures, sag, and damping as well has steering head and swingarm play. The screen was set in the middle position.
    I would suggest that this wouldn't really be a problem when riding at a sensible touring pace.
    I have ordered a steering damper which should be here soon, which should help to alleviate the behaviour.
    I think what you meant to say was 110kph Your honour.. :D
