Rear tyre near legal limit = bike not turning at slow speed?
#1
Evenin' all...


Just rode my new (to me) '03 FZS 600 60 miles home and it was fine on the quick corners, but starting off and trying to get round a small roundabout was a nightmare!!  On every slow turn the bike just wanted to go straight and I'd find myself running stupidly wide, one left exit I almost had to take at a walking pace, just so not to cross into the incoming lane :eek :eek [size=78%].[/size]


The GS 500 on which I passed DAS was as smooth as silk at any speed so I'm not sure what's wrong.  The rear tyre is pretty close to the legal limit and I'm not sure about the front, it look OK though..would this wear cause the steering problems?  Maybe there's just a secret "Fazer" way of riding I'm not aware of.


It's properly freaked me out I have to say, I thought I knew how to steer a bike..I managed to pass the test with flying colours anyway  Big Grin
