I know about head shake and have experienced it before. Iv just been able to recover before it got out of control in my experiences so far. But Im know one day I might not be able to and could go down because of it.

 

i am no new rider either and I recovered from my first "tank slapper" too but if my back door had teeth there would be quite a hole in my jeans. I am getting the Hyper Pro active steering damper as soon as Uncle Sam refunds me.... all it takes is one time to not recover before you never recover
