I saw this posted over in the Dyna section... Thought it was a very good definition of the difference between Wobble and Weave and how to correct it (but you can never totally get rid of it). It appears all bikes have it at sometime or another, dependant on weight and speed... Anyways I thought it was a good video. Hope you all enjoy...
I couldn't help wonder if that Murray is Graham's little brother??? ?
More like my grandad! Murray's dad was a top bike racer in his day and while Murray didn't have any aptitude for racing he became a houshold name over here (still is, though retired now) for commenting on bike and car racing on tv - especially Formula 1. He was also a keen motorcyclist, although that video is very old, dating from the bad old days of the '70s IIRC, when Jap brands in particular had yet to discover what makes a road bike go round bends. You should try following an original Gold Wing along country roads - on second thoughts I wouldn't wish that on any of you....
