Mood: Lucky? For some, maybe!
Maybe you're holding on too tight and/or sitting with yer backside too far back along the saddle Loz?
Try letting the bars have room to settle on their own and squash your "nuts n bolts" forward more up against the tank, puts more weight over the front wheel and completely stops those funny little squirms over rippled surfaces on corner exits which I find such a giggle! One of the problems I had with the SSie was the long comfy, yes really, saddle encouraged lots of back and forth movement.
Failing that, give it a touch more rear preload, I was amazed what a difference it made but it took lots of raising to get there!
I'm trying to get a suspension set up day with local BSB rider Francis Williamson some time very soon, come along and have a chat with him. Even if you dont take advantage of his practical skills he could give you more advice.
