2 PSI in the front tyre.... aaah thats better, a few strokes on the foot pump and it changes direction a lot easier... and all at a price I can afford. In fact I don't mind the macadams that much , they last well and have never given me a problem (apart from the slowish steering) even today on my rain soaked 90 mile daily commute but I prefer the feel of the Continental Road Attacks.

 

Thanks for the heads up on counter steering. I have an 88 and its my first street bike, I started conciously thinking about it in turns, what a difference!

 

You`re welcome! One of the reasons some rookies on bikes go off the road in turns, e.g go straight ahead instead of turning, is that they come into the turn too fast, panic and tries to steer the bike as a car and the bike goes the other way... If you practice counter steering, and are aware of it when you go riding, this knowledge/skill can save your life!

 

"Dad", did a awsome write up about tune'n the 10o0f susp...search
For me... azzaro's w/ sp/ front...st /rear... got 8k, riding hard/ fast. got a set of storms, to go on. Tpreasure is important. Check headstock/ wheel bearings and slider bushes, change that fork oil, to good stuff.
Lots to do... keep look'n for that killer deal, on a rear shock!!!!!
