[QUOTE="keizerken, post: 481343, member: 13967"] Lots of intersting comments and they are all appreciated. I still have the shimmy some two months after my first post, but it hasn't gotten noticeably worse. Just annoying at times. I did talk to a different dealer about it and they recommended installing an upgraded, stiffer spring. Said thay had done several FJR's and that it had made a difference in the shimmy and improved handling. I think at this point I'm going to run the life out of the Contitental Road Attacks and get a different make of tire and see how that turns out. If that doesn't fix it, then I may have to dive into the forks like it or not. Anyone done a fork spring upgrade? Worth doing? Thanks. [/QUOTE]
