Has anyone experienced their 'Monnie' being unstable at high speeds on motorway etc? I have checked tyre pressures, alignment etc. but as my speed increases on my m900ie it begins to 'shake its head a bit.' I have loosened my grip on the bars, but doesn't change much. Would a steering damper help? Which one and are they an easy fit? Ta. Kev.

I've got a hyper pro one on my m900

Before getting one I'd check;

Tyre pressure and wear

Wheel bearings/steerng head bearings

Too much ride height, forks too far through the yokes

Cheers for that, all other checks done except fork height. What is recommended for the amount through the yokes? I've not a lot showing as it is. Kev.
