I bought mine last Sep, ride with no problem when nothing modified

this March, i switched stock pipe to samson dual fish tail. problem occurs

when riding without holding the bars(you know when long distance riding , you gotta free your hands for one or two times), the bike just lean left, and to a great deal.

i suppose there are quite a few owners fitted the same pipe as i do,(a lot of them recommend this pipe to me), Have YOU Experienced the same problem??

 

Not at all! I love my pipes and I love my bike. I haven't had the slightest problem with either. When I ride with one hand the bike is completely balanced.

 

I have V&H true duals and haven't had a problem.

Mine leans slightly to the left with no hands on the bars but it started happening after I installed the fairing. Fishtails didn't affect it either way..

 

Got mine last Oct. Put V&H straightshots on at the dealership, out the gate. Stage one air and download at the 500 mi service. Well balenced when riding with one hand, runs great, very happy. Only had one inexplicable issue ....... it ran "hot" (up to 160 by the gauge on the dipstick) all winter and until I switched from 93 octane to 91 octane. Ever since it has run perfectly (220 - 240) even two up, riding hard up hill and with frequent stops for lights, The outside temps ranged from "freeze the nuts off a rooster" to 70's while burning 93 and in the 80's - 90's since I switched to 91.The whole thing just left me confused and feeling insecure about life because I thought that the higher the octane the slower and more efficient the burn in the chamber.

 

This has been discussed here before. These bikes are a little 'left heavy' due to engine design and the way it sits in the frame for left belt drive. Not a problem though.

 

could be grabbing a little harder than you need. Just relax when riding with one hand.

 

This post is good timing for me. I have a 1970 Triumph TR6R and can ride with no hands for a moment if needed and it tracks straight as an arrow. I tried fixing a glove while riding on the Deluxe this last weekend and it pulled left. I thought it was because of the weight of the bike. It does not bother me at all as when riding with my hand on the throttle only the bike feels perfectly balanced.

 

I hate it too that i can't release from the handlebars with both hands for a few seconds. I thought it was the difference in weight from stuff in the saddlebags so swapped items from one to the other and no difference. I thought it was just my heritage (2012). Guess I'll just have to live with it.
