    Bumpy/Uneven road feeling!

    Well I've adjusted my front shocks. I don't have an FJR manual, so I have no idea what the typical settings would be. I decided to make sure they were set at the same pressure by turning the two knobs as tight as I could get them until I heard one final click, and then I backed them each off by...

    Bumpy/Uneven road feeling!

    Well, got a new Metzler put on the front of my FJ today, checked the bearings and brakes as well. All are good, and the bump is still there! Could I just be crazy?

    The bike has 25k km on it. Tire wear is great, Metz. If it's a bearing issue wouldn't it make some kind of noise? I'll get it balanced asap (it does have weights on it though, suggesting it is balanced). Could it have become unbalanced? Thanks for all the feedback/suggestions!!!

    Bumpy/Uneven road feeling!

    Hi all I'm looking to get an issue resolved on my '03 FJR. Had it for less than 2 months (bought it from a Yamaha dealer). Tell me if you've ever heard of this problem or have any suggestions. While riding between 40km-70km I get the sensation I'm going over a bumpy or uneven road, through the...
