Morning all,my honest experience with this high speed wobble had been
in the 95mph to 115 mph range,i learned what stops it for me is i was
holding the bars too tight,i would loosen my grip with left hand and
wobble stops,as long as my left hand grip is not tight,kind of
resting there ,my bike dont wobble,now i am going to buy a brace,but
this is my experience with this scary wobble.Dave A-13

Is that Speedo-Speed or GPS-Speed, maybe your speedo is off a little
more than mine.

Could be worse. My CBR600 has a computer (calibrated to front wheel exactly)
and deputy (calibrated by Stalker, years of training, and energized by
sugar-coated doughnuts) verified 157.6mph across Gandy Bridge. I'm not sure
if it had anything left on it.
With the brace I ran my '99 A13 up to an indicated 105mph yesterday and it
was probably pretty close. Most of the 60-80mph timings I have done over a
couple mile markers has been just about dead on but usualy bike speedo's are
5-10% off.
