If you thought my corners were iffy, you should have seen the state of my riding on the way to Aylesbury. Ugh. [QUOTE] I avoid thru'penny-biting right handers by slowing down to a walking pace. I have not excuse, other than lack of practice at the moment, though I do suspect the Tiger needs the suspension firming up at the front before I'm going to trust it enough to go a bit faster.[/QUOTE] The SV was downright lethal before I wound up the preload right up at both ends. Now it's merely lively. What Suzuki were thinking when they fitted factory-reject Slinkys at each end I don't know. I find reckless enthusiasm more than makes up for iffy springs, mind.
