Rode to work this morning and everything feels just fine. At parking
lot speeds I can knee steer wtih no hands and the front end tracks
turns & goes back to center OK. Road speed produces no tracking side
to side other than when infulenced by the crown of the road. Guess
I'm guilty of changing two things at once and not knowing which is
causing the symptoms. When I was test riding the bike I was also
wearing a new helmet, a 3/4, and I haven't worn one of those in
years. Kinda makes everything feel and sound odd. I'm thinkin'
everything's alright but me. :-)

Sounds like a good idea, but too much labor for me. I'm wanting to
paint my inner fairing, but just haven't got up the gumption yet. I
was thinking yesterday that I was halfway there, but the weather's
nice and it's no time to tear the bike down.


Thanks to ya'll for the replies.
