Handling Question

[Fnatic]

Took my RS50 out for a quick blap earlier and as I lent in, it felt really wierd.

As if it was like shaking. Hard to explain like.

Could this of just been cold tyres?

[rotax81]

As I lent it it sort of shook as if the back was sliding out but it wasn't

Yeah cold tyres more than likely.

Go for another ride and see if it does it again after a while of riding.

[Fnatic]

Also does anyone know if Michelin Pilot Sport's are actually good tyre's?

Guy who sold me the bike said they are kind of overkill on a 50.

I'm not convinced. I'm putting it down to cold tyre's. Usually it's so smooth around a round about but tonight it was jerking but I was only 5 minutes into my journey


I'll also check my pressure tomorrow but they are bloody 'ard when I kick 'em

[McGee]

Tyre pressures or you squared it off.

Are they squared off?

[K0rnIsAFAGGOT]

[Matthie]

Looks pretty squared off to me mate tbh.

[Fawbish]

Agreed with the squared off. Time for a new set and/or some sand paper and patience.

Pressures should be checked every week as a bare minimum as a couple of PSI can cause handling problems. Always done cold and with a accurate gauge.

How do you know if there squared off?
as mine seems to be doing something similar i was putting it down to swingarm bushes, as the rear feels skippy,

They are squared off but have so much tread left

[MattHirst]

You'll find it will be a pilot sportY rather than a sport.

And yes, they do square off very quickly, i had one on the rear of the XT125 and it squared off during the earlier months of the year....100 mile ride into the dales and back and it was as round as you could want it

They are ok tyres but take a while to warm up and even then they still like to break out on corners (or maybe thats just because i loved backing the XT in )

Erm,

Not sure to be honest.

They aren't flat, I know it doesn't help

It felt much better today after 15 minutes. I took a video also and I'll up it later.

Was leaning over slightly as like 40-50 indicated and didn't twitch.

Just really downs my confidence when it's twitchy
