It's kind of unsettling at any speed but it's a big distraction at +100.
This has been a characteristic since new. I'm thinking single swing are on right rear and some flex in the front end, or maybe a difference in the front forks. I think I've read that the front forks are not the same. One is sort of a "slave" and the other is the main suspension.
So if any of you have felt the same issue or if I'm totally off on the suspension configuration, I'd appreciate the input and maybe suggestions on how to correct it (short of replacing the forks).
Maybe I should have put this in the Garage section of the forum.
