Is it dependant on speed? does the up and down feeling get faster the faster the bike goes or is it constant?

Is it only under acceleration?

Check your chain for tight spots.......in severe cases this can cause the suspension to compress

[rsvpiper]

Mainly second to third under hard acceleration, i've had a look at the chain and its not too good so thats to be changed! will post further after Cadwell on the 7/8th
