Hi guys, I have recently brought myself an 02 RSV R and love it (wanted one of these for a long time), only thing is it feels like the front tire is flat when cornering, it hasn't let go on me yet but feel it is holding me back a fair bit, I wondered if it was just me so got a mate to ride it without telling him anything and his first comment when he got off was "feels like you got a flat front tire mate", I have tried various pressures with no difference I have been right through the bike making sure nothing is slogged out, everything feels tight, the rubber is like new with no visible ridges or flat spots, a couple of people I have spoken to have suggested new tires but to me I would be surprised if that were the case as these look like new, but on the point of trying it as I cant find anything else.
Only other thing is someone has fitted a Sachs rear shock to it that I am going to swap out for the Ohlins when I can track one down.
Any light anyone can shed on this would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers, Dave.
