Re: Speed wobble at 45mph-ish

The W650 will wobble when the rear springs are not firm enough for the rider and any rear loads particularly if the rear tyre is soft.

I experienced this and found that the rear springs had been released to the softest setting after a service.

Hey folks,
?
I have a 2000 W650 and the bike has developed a speed wobble around 35-45mph in 3rd or 4th gear when I let go of the handlebars.? I don't usually ride without my hands off the bars but I discovered this a while ago when I loosen my grip.? I've since changed tires, rebalanced the front tire, loosened up all the bolts and axle on the front forks to reset the alignment but to no avail.? Curious to see if you guys can think of anything that may be causing this?
?
I've attached a video of the wobble slowing down from 50mph to around 45mph.? Thanks!
