Hi,
I have been on here for a million years now, don't normally post but always watching
I have owned my Fazer 1000 since 2004, and in that time I have done a few modifications to get it to be the bike I want it to be.
Here's a brief summary of the work done:
2002 Fazer 1000
R1 front forks with Maxton internals
renthal 758s
Wilbers rear shock with hi and lo speed damping
ivanised.
Mivv GP carbon exhaust
air filter of some description I cant remember
The bike has never let me down in 28,000 miles, but I went out for a blast up hartside with my mate on his 08 fireblade, and I normally don't ride that fast.
When pushing on I started to notice the front end pushing wide and not wanting to hold its line. I would call it a bit chatter too (If was Casey Stoner)
I like the front end of my bike to go exactly where I want it to go, so I need to do something about this.
Any ideas? I set the suspension up years ago when I fitted it and I never had any problems, but then I never rode that hard.
I took my dads R1200GS (also wilbers equiped) out the other day with the same lad on a fireblade, and I felt total confidence in the kicking its head in everywhere, and I never had any problems with the front end pushing wide, at the same sort of pace.
Any ideas?
Ian
