Default Death wobble
Why am I getting death wobble when gunning hard in 2nd?? This is the 2nd time its happened now. Is it my tire pressure? Do I need to lean into the front of the bike more? Do I need a damper?

One of the best aftermarket items for the 954 is a damper. Honda should have put on, front end gets so light! I have Scotts, myself.
