Hi guys. I'm having this problem, it seems that the bike dosn't feel right at low speeds. Tends to go left or right, but it's not really bad. It all happened after I put my racetech springs. When I did that I also replaced the steering head bearings. At first it was really bad. So I then proceded on tightening 2 times the nut from steering and last time I also checked the oil from forks. I made sure that there was exactly the same quantity in both. After this I got rid of one problem, my front side would wobble under heavy acceleration starting from 80-90 mph. Now that's gone, I can only feel it past 100mph but just a little. ( I have done this test on a deserted stretch of highway, I don't recommend anyone going at that speed, not even for testing purposes). Ok, so now I'm left with a small sucky feeling at low speeds, bike seems to go one way or another, it just doesn't feel right. I put the forks back in the original position (were lowered about 4-5mm) and I just don't know what to do. I also got the chain off the rear wheel for a proper cleaning but I think that I alligned it as it should be. No play in the front bearings. Spacers from springs are as close as I could get them to match. What else should I look for? The feeling is more like the bike is going to right side when I stop, but at 40 mph with.no hands it is going straight as a bullet.
