Handle Bar Issue?

Old School · 02-24-2012, 12:56 AM

At slower speeds my steering seems to fall left or right...is that normal? Just wondered, it has been a long time since I have been on a bike.

All i can say is keep practicing, read the manual, look for the correct thread to your questions.

Check your tire pressures. A sticker is on the rear fender or chain guard with recommended PSI. A couple lbs over maximmn will give you better tire wear and still retain lots of traction.
Grip the tank with your knees(lightly) and keep your arms loose when going slow. Keep your feet on the pegs. A little practice and parking lot manuevers will have you grinning in no time.
