Flashpoint, do you do wheelies? if you do, you go come down hard? If you do that kinda stuff, its possible you broke the fork seal and you might be loosing fuild on one side. Loosing fuild will cause the front to be unbalanced.
Let me know.

 

Hey a bit off topic but alekinci your talk about new riders leaning left usually anyway, is that perhaps why it seems easier and more comfortable to turn left especially going at higher speeds? Turning right just seems like more of a challenge or more work than turning left for me. lol Guess I'm just a noob tard. And I can tell on my rear tire since they are brand new it's worn about an inch away from the far left side and about 2 inches from the right.

alekinci, i do do some wheelies and i have come down hard a couple of times. how do i check my fork seals? or how do i check for leakage?

 

Flashpoint, Im gonna try my best to explain. Two biggest components of the fork are the piston (shinny metal part) and there is a fork tub (golden color part), the piston goes in the tub . So, right between the piston and tub/ shinny and golden part you have a rubber seal, service manual calls it "dust seal". Just use any finger and go around that seal and see if there is any liquid on in. I would check for leaks after a short ride.
Good luck.

 

good news. no leaks on the seals. actually they look fine. i am totally convinced that i just ride weird. here is why; tonight on my way home from work i rode my brothers brand new kawasaki 636 and he rode my F4i. well i noticed that when i looked down on at the speedo while i was driving the 636, i was looking from a leaning position on my left side. i also noticed that the bike was pulling. its a brand new bike and has not been abused yet. when i asked my brother, how the F4i felt, he said "felt fine to me" so yea, its just me, i ride weird. thanks for all the help though, now i have to work on my posture.

 

That is good news, the oil seals(not dust seals) and hydralic oil cost like 24 bucks. But taking the forks a part is like a 4 hour job. So thats good. I had a good feeling it was you that was creating the issue. Its ok, like i said I did it all the time in my first couple of weeks.
It will take time but try no to press hard on the left handle bar and the left foot peg(possible the cuase of your problem).

 

It's the way the road is paved. They can't be flat because the water wouldn't run off if they were.

 

This sounds like the 'birds and the bees' talk I got when I was a kid.......I'm gonna have to be left alone for a minute.

 

I ride with one arm bent more than the other. I do the same on my racing bicycle. You just may be asymmetric like me. Somewhere between the hips and hands I'm not the same on both sides.

 

Howdy, ROAD CROWN !!!!!!!!! check w/ any hi wieght touring owner... they'l tell ya. clean and free, Ripp'n
