Yup check that, check rear wheel alignment, upper engine mount alignment and completed the chasis alignment. Only thing left is trying another tire. I may try to find a donor wheel just to try it or maybe it's an excuse to get my 18x5.5 in the back. Once I get a spanner wrench I'm going to tighten my rear shocks and see if that does anything. But my riding season has pretty much come to an end, so I may have to wait. Hopefully the bike will hibernate it away over the winter...lol!!

Jaron,
Sounds to me like the combination of the 21" front, and low profile rear have adversely affected your rake and trail and consequently your front end stability. Since I'm no expert here's an article that may shed some light. Stiffening up the rear shocks should help you to confirm this.
When are you going to complete your relocation to Silverdale so we can extend your riding season?

Yea thanks for the article. I'm pretty sure it's something to do with that because it showed up with the new tire. Of course you know how close on time I was with that. Got the new tire on the night before the ralley, then broken in driving 300 miles there. I actually complete the move this Friday at the latest Sat. Yea I'm shortening because I gotta load the bike and the rest of my stuff on the trailer today so I have everything to go for Friday.
