Coming from riding dirt bikes you are used to the bike moving around and reacting to bumps, dips and potholes. You just kinda ride it out..lol. I've just wrote it off to the bike having "character"!! But really am looking forward to something better. The way it is now it really takes my confidence away when riding at a good pace through twisties etc... Glad you found some nice shocks for your SG

Ohlins make shocks and crtridges for your bike - it's the only way to travel!
