I’ve noticed that I’m getting more wobble on the front when on less smooth roads.

Initially I thought it was just the dash unit so figured the rubbers were tired or it needed adj. to tighten.
However after a couple of Kate night journeys home from the office it’s affecting the headlamp unit (I could see beam pattern bouncing on the rear of the car(s) in front).

A little in flight investigation and I can see movement further down the side panel interiors.

I’ve not had chance to do any stationary investigations but wondered if anyone else had any experience of this and any pointers.

Concerned that something had s stress break and I don’t want to compound the issue by continuing to ride


Thanks in advance

The whole front assembly rides on a plastic frame which can be broken if the bike falls and hits the plastic just right. Not common but we've had owners need to replace the frame.

Fortunately, it's only about $85 USD (not sure in quid) and not that hard to do.

:oops:
So there was an incident with strong wind blowing bike over (cover acted as a sail).

Snapped wing mirror off as it landed on fence panel, but didn’t consider anymore damage. Will have to check that side over mor thoroughly.

Thanks for the pointer!!!
