head shake

[Anonymous]

I have read that the gs700 has issues with this, Has anyone had this happen to them and at what speed?

I maxed out the 700 I used to have at 130mph, no head shake, very stable. If you get headshake on that bike something isn't quite right.

Or it has turned into a Kawi LTD 550 8O

If that happens sell it and get another one!

Seriously, I have never heard of this on the 700cc and up bikes.

It is usually 650 or smaller bikes that suffer from this although
there can always be exceptions.

well i thought it sounded wrong when i read the post a while back. my bike has been a very stable and strong running machine. Actually i wouldn't mind finding another only in an es version.

Steering wobble, increasing with speed, is usually loose/worn steering head bearings. I think some models are just less tolerant of poorly torqued bearings than others.

Im working some wobble problems. Its a high speed thing. Im looking at swing arm bearings for that one. Then one day I let go of the bars at 10 mph and she almost came unglued. A new front tire fixed that. I have a dent in my front rim that didnt look good on the spin balancer. Got a new rim comming with brake discs. Mine are warpped again.
